Tasting - Tres Ojos Garnacha
Name: Tres Ojos Garnacha
Variety: Garnacha
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95
Winery Review: The wine is a brick red color with a bouquet of red raspberries, spice and white pepper. The palate is incredibly concentrated and rich. The modern styles of Garnacha in Spain are continuously being perceived worldwide as wines of extraordinarily good quality. This wine is fruity, juicy and shows a great depth, ripe tannins, length but yet with wonderful elegance and lightness. Enjoy with sausages, roasted meats, ages cheeses, etc.
My Review: The wine is a solid, dark red with an aroma that slightly stings the nostrils. This wine was mostly fruity, but it is balanced out with a nice level of hotness.
I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
