Tasting - Coreto Tinto

The Vintage Cellar, 1/24/13

Name:  Coreto Tinto
Variety:  Blend.  25% Tinto Roriz, 10% Syrah
Region:  Lisboa
Country:  Portugal
Year:  2010
Price:  $6.95
Public review:  "Despite its light touch, this is fruity and full, with its blackberry fruit dominating the warm spice note and acidity.  Soft tannins keep the wine together."  
My review:  Very light, very simply.  Good but nothing special.
With food?:  I did not try this wine with food, thought the Vintage Cellar provided turkey jerky bits with the tasting.  I preferred to sample the wine alone.
Did buy?:  No
