Tasting - Tres Ojos Garnacha 2011

Name: Tres Ojos Garnacha 2011
Variety: 100% Grenache
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95

Winery Review: With a hint of rubber and asphalt, the bouquet on this value wine is generous and topped with blackberry and dark plum aromas. The palate is grabby with clampy tannins and black-fruit flavors mixed with chocolate and spice. The earthy, lightly herbal finish with rubbery nuances is nice. - 89

My Review: I did not enjoy this wine. It was too heavy with the tannins coming through very strongly. It also had a strong oak flavor and a bitter and dry finish.

I did not have this wine with food.
