Tasting - Telmo Rodriguez Rueda Basa

Name: Telmo Rodriguez Rueda Basa
Variety: 85% Verdejo, 3% Sauvignon Blanc, 12% Viura
Region: Rueda
Country: Spain
Year: 2013
Price: $12.95
Shop Review: "85% Verdejo, 3% Sauvignon Blanc, and 12% Viura, dusty aromas of unripe melon and apple are pyrazinic. A bit of spritz greets you on the palate, while flavors of green citrus run heavy and pithy."
My Review: This wine had a strong smell to it. It tasted rather bland, and there was a bitter aftertaste. The flavor was not sweet, but it did not feel heavy on the palate either. I don't believe that I would seek to drink this wine again. Was not paired with any food.
