Name: Protocolo
Variety: 50% Airen, 50% Macabeo
Region: Tierra de la Castilla
Country: Spain
Year: 2015
Price: $6.95 Winery review: The 2015 Protocolo Blanco is a blend of 50% Airen (the most commonly planted white grape in the world) and 50% Macabeo, also known as Viura. It is crisp, light, with hints of grapefruit and white currant. It is relatively dry, clean, and just about everything one would expect of a wine at this price point, only better.
My review: Smelled overly acidic but the tasting was surprising. Certainly some acid but some odd sweetness in the back of the mouth too. Some sparkling taste but no bubbles. Carbon taste and refreshing. Would be really good chilled.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
