In der Dezember-Ausgabe 2015 des renommierten »
The Wine Advocate« hat
Quinta do Pintos ›
Quinta do Pinto Estate Collection Tinto 2012‹ hervorragende 90/100 Punkten von Verkoster Mark Squires erhalten. Über die
Cuvée aus der
Vinho Regional Lisboa, erzeugt aus den Rebsorten
Merlot,
Syrah,
Touriga Nacional und
Aragonêz, schreibt er nachfolgend im Original:
„This is a lovely Tinto and a terrific value. It has caressing texture and an elegant mid-palate. The oak is well controlled and the mid-palate has more than enough concentration for the level. It finishes with fruit and lingering flavor. The tasty rush of fruit on the finish is never cloying and it never unbalances the wine. The wine is well supported by its structure, the rather refined
tannins. This manages to be sexy and graceful at the same time.”
