Tasting - Lobetia Tempranillo
Name: Lobatia Tempranillo
Variety: Tempranillo
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $9.95
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: This deep red-colored wine had distinct notes berry, jammy notes on the nose. Despite its darker color and the slightly earthy presence, it was not all that heavy or complex. This would not be my first choice of Tempranillos.
I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
