Tasting - Barão de Figueira Siria

Name: Barão de Figueira Vinho Branco
Variety: Siria
Region: Beira
Country: Portugal
Vintage: 2014
Price: $12, on sale for $6.95

Shop Review: "This wine is soft and rounded. It has lemon and light spiciness along with cool acidity. It is an easy wine that is ripe with apple and fresh lemon juice and ready to drink."

My Review: I thought this wine was a bit on the sour side.  I also was able to pick up on the acidity, which I didn't like all too much.  This wine almost made me want to pucker when I took a sip.  Was not bad, but also wasn't great.  If you were one of those rowdy teenagers who but jolly ranchers in your vodka, this is for you.
