Tasting-Tres Ojos Garnacha

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

Vintage Cellar 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 had a raspberry smell.  The taste was very different.  It made my tongue dry when I was drinking it.  I think it would taste a lot better with food.  It had a sour bite at the end.  I was not eating any food while at the wine tasting.
