Tasting - Tres Ojos Garnacha



Name: Tres Ojos Garnacha

Variety: Garnacha, Tempranillo

Region: Calatayud

Country: Spain

Year: 2011

Price: $6.95 


Winery 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: I did not hear the wine pourer that this was a sparkling wine.I believe it was my first time having a sparkling wine of a darker color. The nose had a strong cherry aroma. I'm not a fan of cherries, but the taste was delicious! The fuzziness and bubbles softened the taste of cherries. The fuzziness also made the finish a bit more fun.

I did not have it with any food.
