4/25 Tasting - Lobetia Tempranillo

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

The Vintage Cellar's 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: This wine smelled buttery and peppery. It reminded me of a roasted chicken dinner. It was very tannic on the palate with a spicy finish.

This wine was tasted without food.
