Tasting - Doural Tinto


Name: Doural Tinto
Variety: red blend
Region: Douro
Country: Portugal
Year: 2009
Price: $8.95

Critic Review: This Portuguese tinto (red) blend exhibits a deep red color with violet hues. The nose is vibrant and fruity.  The palate offers notes of spice, cherry, and dark berry supported by good structure.  Pairs well with red or game meat, cheeses and fish.

 My Review: This wine was deep red in color.  It did not have much of an aftertaste.  It was well balanced; I didn’t feel any heat coming though, but I didn’t really care for the flavor. I did not taste this wine with food.
