Tasting - El Sierro Macabeo



Name: El Sierro
Variety: Macabeo / Chardonnay
Country: Spain
Price: $6.95

Winery Review: In the glass, there is a bright and shiny white wine with an incredibly welcoming, fresh appetizing aroma reminiscent of ripe tropical fruits. The flavor is rich, balanced and extremely comfortable. The near-perfect all-purpose white wine. As an additional benefit, and good evidence that El Sierro reflect the new Spain, the bottle is sealed with the technical viewed perfect screw cap that at once eliminates any risk of cork flavor and keeps the fruit and the wine fresher for longer time. 

My Review: The nose on this wine was filled with tropical fruits and even smelled a little bit acidic. I tasted the exact same thing, with tropical fruit flavors and acidity. It was very light bodied and had a nice medium finish. It was also very clear in color, you could basically see through it! I liked this wine overall.
