Don Ramon (Tinto)


Name: Don Ramon
Variety: Tinto
Region: ??
Country: Spain
Year: ??
Price: $7.95


Winery review: 75% Grenache, 25% Tempranillo.  Aged 3 months in American Oak casks.  Ruby red in color, with creamy aromas of earth and cherry.  Flavor turns toward deeper and darker black cherry and raspberry on a medium framework.  A subtle earthiness underneath the bright fruit adds some depth and complexity.


My review:  Had a very earthy, spicy scent to it.  Tasted very oaky and did not have much heat to it.  Cherry was the only fruit I could really detect.  Sweet mid-palette followed by a sour aftertaste.



I tasted this on its own without food.
