Episode 65: 2005 Borsao Red
We were a little scared of this bottle, considering it was only $5.99, and our experience with the uni-boob cow didn’t make us friends of cheap Spanish wine. Plus, the label has a “dork on it,” according to the Grapedonk’s Interpretation of Modern Art.
It’s a confusion of flavors when first opened–blueberry and blackberry predominates. But even right out of the bottle, it’s a happy, friendly wine. After boofage, it smoothed out even more. It’s a good introduction to red wine for people who’ve only tried whites so far. Except for the dick on the label.
We paid $5.99. Buy this wine at WineAccess.

Hey, Grape Donk!
I’ve been watching your shit for a while now, and I’m really diggin’ on it. Thanks for all your hard work, . . er. . hard drinking, er. . Thanks!
One thing, though: you’re editing your stuff a bit much now, and since your standing in the same spot through several fades, I’m starting to feel like I’m at at Dead concert. Not that that’s so bad, mind you, but just so you know that this is the effect you’re having on your audience these days.
Thanks again!

I gotta agree with you on this wine! I’ve been drinking it for years!

Grapedonk sez: not editing, me move to fast for camera, like Ninja.

Methinks the Grapedonk has been drinking too much wine. That’s editing, man.

1st thing’s first: I think you’re a friggin’ riot! I also know that you definitely know your wines. I was sceptical about this particullar wine, so I bought 1 bottle. I drank the whole bottle w/ my brother and we both agree with your assessment. That aside, I went back and bought 6 more bottles of it. An hour after I got home from work, here comes my brother with another box of it. Yeah, it’s definitely worth it to get mad amounts of it!
