Tasting - Tres Ojos

Name: Tres Ojos
Variety: Old Vines Garnacha
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2016
Price: $12

Shop 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."

My review: I liked this one slightly better than the Tenuta Rapitala. Aroma and taste contain layers of strawberry jam, raspberries, and pepper. Fairly dry with an incredibly smooth, tannic finish. If red wine were cars then this would be a Lexus. But not quite a Ferrari.

I tasted this wine without food.
