Tasting- Lobetia Chardonnay

Name: Lobetia Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
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 terrior  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.(04/25/2013- Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg, VA)

My review:This white wine is not an ancient oak like most Chardonnay's are. It smelled like B.O. on the very first sniff, however after that it got much better. It smelled like peach and pineapple; a lot more fruity than the first smell. It tasted tart, and was not super dry or super sweet. It also had a slight taste of melons as well.
