Lost Vineyards vinho de Mesa Tinto

Name: Lost Vineyards
Variety: Red Blend
Region:  N/A
Country: Portugal
Year: N/A
Cost: $3.95


Winery 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: Well to be honest I was unsure what to expect with this wine. Obviously you should not judge a wine by the price but in this case it is noticeable that this wine is cheap. I was happily surprised that it tasted better than some other red wines but overall not the best wine. I got a fruity aroma on the nose with a hint of orange. On the palate the wine was relatively smooth but not much flavors to speak of. For the price this wine would be a good day drinking wine. I drank this wine without the pairing of food.
