Tasting - Lobetia Chardonnay


Name: Lobetia Chardonnay

Variety: Chardonnay

Region: La Mancha

Country: Spain

Year: 2011

Price: $10.95

Shop 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: I could tell that this wine wasn't oaked, as it didn't have a smooth, buttery flavor.  The wine smelled a bit like pizza on the nose, definitely being good to go with Italian food.  The wine tasted like a sweet grape juice, with a hint of pear.

With Food? No
