Paul Laureano Tinto Classico, 2013
Variety: Tinto ClassicoRegion: Alentejano
Country: Portugal
Year: 2013
Price: $8.95
Wine Critic 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.
My Review: This was pretty good. It had flavors of blackberry and oak. There were no pepper or spice overpowering the flavor. However, there were small bites that kept you intrigued with the flavor. I would probably drink it again.
Food: We did not have it with food.
