Tasting: Lobetia Chardonnay

Name: Lobetia Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $10.95

Winery review: Organically and naturally grown and made, this wine allows the varietal and the terroir to stand out cleanly. Clean, bright color with a greenish-yellow tone. On the nose, exotic fruits like pineapple. Full flavored, fresh, with good acidity in the mouth, it finishes with tropical fruits.

My review: On the nose, this wine was nondescript but proved to have a full flavor! It was more acidic than I prefer but the melon and tropical flavors were very fresh and well-balanced. I liked the composition of the wine and found it very interesting that it was produced "biodynamically"

Food:  None
