Tasting - Lobetia Tempranillo


The Vintage Cellar, 4/25/13

Name:  Lobetia Tempranillo
Variety:  Tempranillo
Region:  La Mancha
Country:  Spain
Year:  2011
Price:  $10.95
Public 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:  Deep nose.  Raspberry?  Blackberry?  Very appealing.  I can definitely taste the cherry.  Much drier than the fruity wines that I'm used to, which is actually nice.  A little earthy.
With food?:  No
Did buy?:  No
