Shop Review: (I believe the shop review was incorrect, perhaps it was not changed from last week, the following review is from http://www.kysela.com/spain/tresojos.htm ,and from Wine Enthusiast)"With a hint of rubber and asphalt, the bouquet on this value wine is generous and topped with blackberry and dark plum aromas. The palate is grabby, with clampy tannins and black-fruit flavors mixed with chocolate and spice. The earthy, lightly herbal finish with rubbery nuances is nice. — M.S."

My Review: A nose that was a combination of cherry, wood and leather all worn in earth. With a middle that was sharp and tart the above grabby is a good descriptor. Finally is finishes bone dry with the most exiting flush of tannins.
