Campo de Borja
Coto de Hayas Reserva 2002
Another wine from the Garnarcha Empire. I'm finding wines from Campo de Borja are becoming a bit of a favourite for me. They are consistently very good, intriguing wines that have bags of character and layers of flavour. This one is made from old vine Garnarcha and aged in a mix of American and French oak for 14 months.
A soft nose of earth, light spice, smoke and red berries. Silky smooth in the mouth with light tannins and good length. The flavours on the palate are the real show here, layers of flavour as the wine continually opens up. Chocolate, cola, clove, raspberry, cherry brandy, roast meat and wintergreen. Great now, I'd drink this over the next 3-5 years. 90 Pts

Hello,
I had the pleasure of drinking the Coto de Hayas Reserva Campo de Borja 2002 in Melbourne last week and am keen to purchase some here in Qld if it is available. Have googled without success - I live on the Gold Coast and would love to hear if someone has found a supplier.
Hi Janet.
You could try the guys at The Wine Emporium (http://www.thewineemporium.com.au/) or try one of the on-line retailers like, like Boccaccio or Winestar.
If all that fails, let me know and I can put you on to the importers.
