Tasting - Lobetia Tempranillo

Wine: Lobetia 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: The color of this wine was a deep red. The nose was strong with hints of plum and dark cherries. The strong nose continued with a strong taste. The tannins were very high, making the taste and finish bitter. The taste lingered for a while. 

I did not have it with any food.
