Tasting - Tres Ojos Rose

Name: Tres Ojos Rose
Varietal: 50% Tempranillo, 50% Garnacha
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2009
Price: $1.95

Winery Review: This medium rose-colored rosado boasts a spicy red cherry/plum nose with a soft lush attack of red berry fruit flavors and a crisp, dry finish. Simple and refreshing and a natural for tapas.

My Review: I personally did not care for this wine. Although it had a pleasant scent on the nose of sweet berries, it had a tart taste on the palate. I felt that the tannins in the wine were very strong and overly expressed in this wine. Essentially, it made my eye cringe from being too tart and acidic tasting.

Food: N/A
