Fonseca

Finest Vintage Port Blend 1977

Lovely vintage Porto, dark fruits, solid balance, starting to show its age, long, lingering finish, only quibble is that this doesn’t show the characteristic sweeter style (thus my comment on its age, starting to dry out just a tad). — 5 days ago

Light and slightly effervescent as it should be for a “green” wine. Best for a light fish lunch. — 12 days ago

W. & J. Graham's

Vintage Port Blend 1977

[8 hour decant] This is from a very fine lot of 1977 Graham’s I purchased in the mid-to-late 1990s from a small Napa importer, and is at the level of the 1977 Fonseca we drank last week, sweet, nice weight and balance, long, lingering finish, very nice!! — a day ago

Casal Garcia

Vinho Verde White Blend

A fresh, semi sweet wine ideal for summer! Mild acidity with hints of pear and green apple. Pairs very well with crackers, sharp cheddar cheese and grapes. It is a very good wine for the low pricepoint and fun to enjoy while snacking outdoors.  — 4 days ago

Late Bottled Vintage Porto Port Blend 2019

Big, rich, ripe LBV with awesome fruit and structure, lacks the subtlety of the 1977 Graham’s vintage, but a great LBV as a sipper!! — a day ago

If you find yourself in Oporto, visit their tasting room and ask for a tasting of their Scion. Only available there. It was $90 euro a tasting in 2015. Barrels placed in barrel in or around 1886 before phylloxera and forgotten about for a very long time. A bottle was 5k. One of 4 wines I have given a perfect score. Heavenly!!!!

Vinho Verde Loureiro Blend

First Vinho Verde! Super light, crisp notes of lime, green apple, and florals. Slight fizz from a secondary fermentation. — 2 months ago
