- Critic 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.
- Tasting Review
- Paulo Classico has a bouquet of butter and smokeyness. The taste was a bit green with hints of dark fruits and was slightly tart with a smoky/sweet aftertaste.
