Tasting - Tres Ojos Rosado

Name: Tres Ojos Rosado 2017
Variety: Granacha/Tempranillo
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2017
Price: $9

Winery Review: Medium pink. This is Garnacha rose made in a fruity, easy drinking style. Showing ripe strawberry fruit, its moderate acidity and suave texture makes it the perfect sipping rose. 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: While I typically like roses, I did not enjoy this one. This wine had distinct floral aromas and tasted like light berries rather than dark berries. When swirled in the glass, it had slight residual sugars that was revealed in the legs.

I tasted this wine without food.
