Vintage Cellar Review: Blackberry and cola aromas are cool and collected. The palate has weight and texture to accompany berry, mint, herb and peppery flavors. Turns more herbal and roasted as it unwinds. Pepper and spice lead the finish.
While the Coreto Tinto smelled pungent and tasted bright, it was the opposite for this red wine. The smell was nice and floral, it even smelled like a wine I would drink. However, upon tasting it, it lost that effect. It tasted like pungent red wines I've tasted before and did not like and it lingered after I was done. Needless to say it was my least favorite of the tasting with all 5 of these wines and I was ready to move on to the next one. However, my roommate said it was his favorite, so its all about personal taste.
