Don Ramon Tinto


Don Ramon Tinto
Variety: 75% Grenache, 25% Tempranillo 
Region: Campo de Borga
Country: Spain
Year: 2008
Price: $8


Winery review: 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:  This wine overall I found to be thick and rich. The mid pallet is strong and thick and the taste was overall intricate. I found the taste of cherry to be different and would work well with food. I was not able to try this wine with food, however.
