Tasting - "Telmo Rodriguez Rueda Basa"

Telmo Rodriguez Rueda Basa, 2011
Variety: Verdejo
Region: Castilla y Leon, Rueda
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $12.95
Wine Critic Review: "This is a lovely, lively verdejo with an intense, floral and very aromatic nose of passion fruit, yellow plum and fine herbs. It's light to mid-weight, very zesty and firm. Slightly tingly, peppery and spicy as well with fruit and an evergreen sappiness on the finish. Very good to excellent length. Tasted August 2014."  August 2014 - Wine Align - David Lawrason - 90 Points
My Review: This wine was pretty good! It was kind of a mellow taste that was smooth. It didn't have anything that overpowered the flavor.  It was a subtle cool taste.  I think I would have this wine again with a light food such as seafood.
Food: We did not have it with food.
