Name: Lost Vineyards Vinho de Mesa Tinto
Variety: Tinto
Region: Unspecified
Country: Portugal
Year: Non-Vintage
Price: $3.95
Review: Pours a light garnet color with a nice crisp
zest, with aromas of cranberries and orange peel on the nose. Drinks smooth
with a briary of mild cherries, wild strawberries and raspberries along with a
note of rhubarb. Pairs particularly well with wild game and heavy fish such as
salmon
My Review: There was not a big nose on this wine,
just a subtle hint of berries. The color
and tannins were also very light. The
taste was light as well, although interesting because I don’t usually get
strawberry flavors from a wine. There
were also hints of cherry, petrol and maybe something oaky to added more
earthiness. I wish the flavors had been
more powerful and developed, because I think that would have helped this wine a
lot.
I tried this wine without food.
