Tasting - Mokoroa Txakolina


Name - Mokoroa Txakolina

Variety - Hondarrabi Zuri


Country- Spain


Year - 2011

Price - $13.95

Shop/wine critic/winery review - Young, Fruity, Dry white wine with high acidity and medium alcohol content.  As a result of the fermentation process, this wine is slightly sparkling, producing a tingle on the palate and full range of aromas.

My Review -  This is definitely the first time I have had this varietal and when I first saw the name I thought it was a japanese.  The color of this wine was dark yellow.   The aroma had hints of lemon and lime.  The palate had intense tropical fruit flavors, high acidity and a refreshing crispness.  This wine reminded me of moscato and was very good.  Rating 8.5/10.

Food - None
