Spanish Bobal, very Beauj like. Light, tart red berries, low tannins, good acidity. Cilled and refreshing.

I usually have great luck w/Manchuela but this was disappointing. Electric ruby, transparent w/wild strawberry, raspberry and spice on the nose mingled w/greenery, herbaceousness & medicinal. All of that was fine, but there was such tangy acidity it was basically VA. Light bodied and unbalanced, great flavors, but flawed winemaking.
