Tasting - Cresta Azul


Name:  Cresta Azul
Variety: White blends
Region:  Emporda
Country:  Spain
Year:  N V
Price: $5.95
Tasting Date and Location: 4 April 2013 at Vintage Cellar

Winery review: Moscatel, Macabeo, Parellada, Xarel-lo Peach, orange cream and vanilla flavors mingle in this softly bubbly white. Off-dry, but with crisp acidity and a clean finish.


My review: The nose was not overwhelming, but I could pick up buttery, peachy aromas.  This wine was definitely sweet and creamy.  Tasted like liquid candy actually.  Was a welcomed change from the Veleta Tempranillo.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
