Country: Spain / Basa Blanco
Variety: White Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Telmo Rodríguez / Rueda
Smells like air freshener and white flowers. The palate is spongey and a bit low on life, while the flavors lean toward citrus but lack purity and zap, which is further drilled in on the waxy finish. Once upon a time Basa was a leading white value from Spain; lately it has been average at best.
