Tasting - Lost Vineyards Vinho de Mesa Tinto


Name:  Lost Vineyards Vinho de Mesa Tinto
Variety:  Tinto
Country:  Portugal
Region:  Not specified
Year:  Not specified 
Price:  $3.95

Vintage Cellar 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:  This tinto had a rhubarb aroma.  The palate was smooth with pepper and cherry flavors.  I tried this wine on its own without food.
