Tasting - Tres Ojos Garnacha


Tasting - Tres Ojos Garnacha

Name: Tres Ojos Garnacha 

Variety: 100% Garnacha

Region: Calatayud

Country: Spain

Year: 2011

Price: $6.95

Review: This wine has 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, aged cheeses etc.

My Review: The peppery taste in this wine turned me away from its flavor at first. However the fruity flavors provided a nice balance to the wine. Overall this is not a wine I would buy.
