Tasting- Lobetia Chardonnay 2011

Name: Lobetia Chardonnay 2011
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: La Mancha, Spain
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: I loved the nose on this one, it was so tropical and fruity just like a mango with a decent amount of apple to accompany it on the nose. Overall it was nice and crisp smelly which contrasted to the dryness that was in the taste. It was really dry, but without any acidity which I was not a fan of. The only thing that came to mind was like dried limes or stale fruit. I like chardonnays, but this one was a little drier than my taste.
