Tasting - Lobetia Tempranillo

Name: Lobetia Tempranillo
Varietal: 100% Tempranillo
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. It shows a nice cherry color with a violet shade because of its youth. Red berries and cherries on the nose. On the palate it is fresh, slightly astringent, and harmonious with a long finish.

My Review: I found these wines interesting because they are organic. They hardly use pesticides and so they yield a smaller crop. I thought this was bold of the winery and made me like them before even trying their wine. This wine had a sweet, cherry-vanilla, cake aroma to it. I thought this wine was enjoyable. It was not dry nor oaky and would be perfectly paired with any kind of meat.

Food: N/A
