Tasting -- Tres Ojos Rose


Name: Tres Ojos Rose
Variety: 50% Garnacha, 50% Tempranillo
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2009
Price: $3.95

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:  Slight butter on the nose but over powered by cherry aromas. Bitter and acidic taste. Flavors of sour apple and sour cherry. Pretty hot and alcoholic for a rose. Not very sweet at all.

I did not eat while tasting this wine.
