Tasting - Tres Ojos Garnacha

Name: Tres Ojos Garnacha
Variety: Grenache
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $6:95
Vintage Cellar Review: "This 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: I really liked the combination of flavors in this wine. There was a kick of spice and kick of sweet that went hand and hand perfectly. The aftertaste was definitely won by the spice, but it was still a good wine. I would drink the wine if offered but I would not buy the wine on my own.
There was no food paired with this wine.
