Tasting- Tres Ojos Garnacha

Winery review:"This semi-opaque ruby, custom cuvée of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre is made specifically for Fran Kysela. It exhibits very fresh, ripe dark red fruit with very good palate weight and depth and ends with rich fruit notes. Made from organically grown grapes. Incredible value!"
- I-WineReview (December 2013), 90 pts.

My review: The nose had hints of raspberry and plums. The primary pallet seemed very watered down. This added to the lightness of the wine's body. The finish was very dry. I tasted this wine with no food. I honestly did not care much for this wine due to the finish.
