Tinto Classic

Name: Tinto Classico
Variety: 40% Trincadeira 40% Aragonez 20% Alfrocheiro
Region: Alentejano
County: Portugal
Year: 2013
Price: $8.95

My Review: The wine had a spicey finish to it, with cherry-like tastes. It was smoother than what I thought it would be. Overall, I kinda liked it, but was the bets wine I've ever had.

Winery Review: Paulo Laureano’s Classico is a delicious blend of the native Portuguese varietals Trincadeira (40%), Aragonez (40%) and Alfrocheiro (20%). This is a full bodied red that reveals all that the terroir of Portugal has to offer. Light cigar tobacco and soft leather present beautifully on the nose. Dark, black fruits fill the mouth, but the wine flows smoothly over the palate, with a good bit of spice on the finish. Pair with spicy, cured meats and hard cheeses.
