Tasting: Tres Ojos Garnacha

Name: Tres Ojos Garnacha
Variety: Garnacha
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2013
Price: $6.95 at Vintage Cellar, Regular $10

Shop Review: 87 – Stephen Tanzer "Bright purple. Blackberry, plum and peppery spice aromas exhibit good vibrancy and power. Firm cherry and dark berry flavors are subtly accented by a peppery nuance, picking up a hint of licorice with air. A candied plum note lingers on the warm finish, which is firmed by gentle tannins"


My Review: This wine has a strong smell of dark berries and cherry with an undertone of warm oaky vanilla and spice. On the palate the cherry flavor really comes through and balances the oak and spice on the palate.
This wine was not tasted with food.
