    Tres Ojos Garnacha - Extreme Value

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: March 31, 2022 Last Updated: January 17, 2023

    A whole lot of flavor for just $8, the Bodega San Gregorio Tres Ojos Old Vines Garnacha. Unoaked Garnacha goodness from the Calatayud.

    Tres Ojos Garnacha - Extreme Value

    85% dry farmed Garnacha from 40-50+ year old vines plus 15% Tempranillo from Calatayud, Spain. The wine is whole berry fermented and aged in stainless steel for 12 months.

    Sample submitted for review. The Tres Ojos Garnacha has an SRP of $12 and is available for as low as $8. It is imported by Kysela Pere et Fils, LTD.

    From the bottle:

    Garnacha from 40+ year old vines, fruit focused (tart cherries and raspberries) with a nice background of briary, peppery, spiciness. Easy on the palate and an excellent companion to a wide range of dishes from pasta, burgers & pizza to roasts and hearty cheeses.

    Produced and Bottled by San Gregorio
    15.5% Alcohol

    The 2018 Tres Ojos Garnacha opens with lots of ripe, tart, dark berry aromas along with pleasing floral notes, some almost garrigue like herbal touches and a little leather.

    Taking a sip reveals a smooth, tart, fleshy and juicy unoaked Garnacha. Featuring similar flavors to the nose with a little spice as well, this is loaded with character and deep fruit flavors from the old vine fruit.

    It ends with a dry, very long and lasting finish of juicy fruit. This is a whole lot of flavor for just $8! The whole thing was just as good on day 2.
