Winery review: 88 points – Robert Parker"The 2012 Tres Ojos Garnacha contains 15% Tempranillo (I wonder why), and unoaked cuvée of 200,000 bottles that matures in vat for at least seven months before bottling. What I tasted was a very honest, fresh and fruit-driven red with aromas of cherries, garrigue and thyme with a medium-bodied palate, some weight and tannins that would do better with food. This is a red that sells for a song.”
My review: I thought this red wine was good. It had a sharp, pungent aroma. It was dry and had bold flavors of cherry, dark berries and left a tannic aftertaste. Had some interesting aromas, and flavors that were odd and difficult to describe but overall I thought it was a great meal wine.
