Tasting - "Paul Loreano Tinto Classico"

Name: Paul Loreano Tinto Classico
Variety: Red Portugese Blend
Region: Alentejano
Country: Portugal
Year: 2013
Price: $8.95

Wine Review: "Paulo Laureano’s Classico is a delicious blend of the native Portuguese varietals Trincadeira (40%), Aragonez (40%) and Alfrocheiro (20%). This is a full bodied red that reveals all that the terroir of Portugal has to offer. Light cigar tobacco and soft leather present beautifully on the nose. Dark, black fruits fill the mouth, but the wine flows smoothly over the palate, with a good bit of spice on the finish. Pair with spicy, cured meats and hard cheeses."

My Review: This wine had a sour, bitter, slightly stinky feet and funeral flower smell and tasted like funeral flowers and a little bit fruity. The aftertaste was bitter and reminded me of dandelions. Pretty good! 
I enjoyed this wine without food.
