Tasting - Jesus Diaz Blanco Vinos de Madrid

 Name: Jesus Diaz Blanco Vinos de Madrid
Variety: 100% Malvar
Region: Madrid
Country: Spain
Year: N/A
Price: $8.95

Winery review: "Vinos de Madrid is a region of Spain not often encountered in the US, while Malvar is considered a regional specialty but remains unknown outside of central Spain. Zesty acidity and tropical fruit make this obscure buy a great food wine."


My review: This wine is a pale lemon color. It's light bouquet hints of tropical fruit with soft citrus notes and flowers. This dry wine reminds me of honeysuckle, then with a raspberry mid palate, and a short tropical after-taste. Some bitter / mineral aspects at the end.
