Tasting - Coreto Tinto



Name: Coreto Tinto
Variety:Portuguese Red
Region: Lisboa
Country: Portugal
Year: 2008
Price: $6.95

Wine critic review: This red from the Coreto range has loads of dark berry fruit with a hint of new oak creating a soft, velvet structure that makes it very to easy drink. Red currant and juicy acidity.

My review: This wine was very smooth and consisted of black berry and raspberry flavors. It's body wasn't too deep and was very easy to drink with quite the finish at the end. The aromas were also of berry with a hint of something woody. I didn't pair it with anything but I could see this wine going well with a nice steak dinner or a roast.
