Tasting- Don Ramon Tinto

Name: Don Ramon Tinto
Variety: Garnacha, Tempranillo
Region: Campo De Borja
Country: Spain
Year: Not Vintage
Price: $7.95


Vintage Cellar 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: The Don Ramon was a very dry but fruity wine. It had soft tannins but was almost too strong for my taste. This type of wine would pair nicely with a succulent steak and potatoes. This was a great values for this type of wine.


I did not taste this wine with any food.
