Tasting - Protocolo Vino de la Tierra de Castilla

Name: Protocolo Vino de la Tierra de Castilla
Variety: 50% Airén, 50% Macabeo
Region: Castilla La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2012
Price: $6.95

Winery Review: Mostly Airén with a little bit of Macabeo .Greenish gold. Subtle aromas of mint, lemon and orange, with a hint of honeysuckle. Dry, understated and focused, offering clean citrus and melon flavors and slow-building sweetness. Finishes dry and brisk, with an echo of lemon. As usual, this is an outstanding value.

My Review: The nose of this particular wine was very clean and crisp.  The palette of this wine was laced with green apple, lime, and citrus.  I noticed that this wine had a particularly dry finish.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
