Tasting - Cresta Azul

Name: Cresta Azul
Variety: Moscatel, Macabeo, Parellada, Xarel-lo
Region: Spain
Country: Spain
Year: NV
Price: $5.95

Winery Review: 
Peach, orange cream and vanilla flavors mingle in this softly bubbly white. Off-dry, but with crisp acidity and a clean finish. 

My Review: This didn't taste a whole lot like wine to me. The nose gave me nothing but juicy freshness and bubbles. I barely tasted any alcohol among the creamy vanilla and citrus. It tasted like I would imagine creamsicle soda tastes like, if that even exists. As I typically like my wine with a little bit more kick, I didn't really enjoy this one.

I did not try this with food.
