Tres Ojos

Name: Tres Ojos

Variety: 70% Garancha, 30% Tempranillo

Region: Calatayud

Country: Spain

Year: 2017

Price: $6.95

Winemakers notes: Medium pink. This is Garnacha rosé made in a fruity, easy drinking style. Showing ripe strawberry fruit, its moderate acidity and suave texture makes it the perfect sipping rosé. A blend of 70% Garnacha and 30% Tempranillo grown on limestone, marl and slate soils and made by the San Gregorio cooperative, which includes about 900 ha of 40+ year old vines. 14.5% alc.

My review: This rosé has a very rich berry flavor without the sweetness. There was not an overpowering sweetness to it and it actually left my palate dry. It was not very carbonated for a rosé and it had a somewhat sour finish.

Pairings: I did not pair this wine with any food.
