Tasting - Lobetia Chardonnay


Name: Lobetia Chardonnay
Varietal: Chardonnay
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $9.95

Vintage Cellar 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: Definitely heavier and more floral on the nose than the first wine. My first thought was grass, not fruit. It was more acidic, very warm on the first sip, but lacked the cat-pee factor that's turned me off to most Chardonnay.
