Tasting - Cresta Azul


Name: Cresta Azul
Variety: Moscatel, Macabeo, Parellada, Xarel-lo
Region: North Coast
Country: Spain
Year: NV

Price: $5.95
Shop/wine critic/Winery Review: Peach, orange cream and vanilla flavors mingle in this softly bubbly white. Off-dry, but with crisp acidity and a clean finish.

My Review: this is the third of the three rose’s we were tasting today.  And this was the first one of the bunch that actually smelled sweet! It had hints of peaches to the nose after you got through the sweetness.  The taste from there was very simple.  It was balanced with the acidity in it but it was pretty one dimensional.  Overall, I enjoyed it but I think a taste was enough.
