FANTASTIC ARTICLE -- DOURO LOVERS MUST READ
Ambition driven by passion, rather than money, is as strong an elixir as is Port. http://www.fortheloveofport.com

Ok, I'll admit that I am pretty surprised that nobody had a comment on this fine article.

A nice little read, but I'm going to have a tough time finding any of those in my neck of the woods. He's right that they are underappreciated, and that's certainly true in my area.

I'll have to seek a few out the next time I get out into civilization again.

No doubt about it, that Pato Maria Gomes is a great value, and it's offered online even cheaper than the article suggests. Admittedly I haven't gotten to try any whites from the Douro region yet. I don't think I've even seen one offered here before. Other regions, I've certainly tried, though. Really cool geeky stuff out there, for sure.
