Tasting: Tres Ojos Garnacha



Name: Tres Ojos Granacha
Variety: Grenache
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95
Winery Review: The 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 wine has a dark ruby color. The smell was very odd, some type of spice. The palate was pretty fruity yet very tart. I also detected some spice flavors. I didn’t really care for this wine, it was too dry for me.
I did not have with food.
