Wine of the Week: Tinto Sweet Red Wine





I'm trying to get into reds as an avid Riesling lover.  There are options!  So I figure I'll start sweet before I get too deep into the fuller-bodied and more smooth wines.  I do enjoy crisp wines like a nice Vino Verde, however this red was nice.  It was light and sweet -- sweeter than a typical red.  It was enjoyable, however I don't see it being paired with many foods.  But if you'd like a nice, light, sippable option -- perhaps you're throwing a dinner party? -- then this works.  I confess it's not my favorite even of the reds I've had (I much preferred the Robertson Winery Red).  But you may feel differently, so I would say give it a shot!
