I was most curious about the Colheita match with Brazil. The % of seaches in Brazil was very high, more so than any other top country in these lists. But it wasnt listed in either VP or Tawny.

Seattle ahead of cities many times its size is amazing to me. John, I think you need to stop Googling Vintage Port as you are certainly to blame for our city showing so high up within the US data strata.
Ambition driven by passion, rather than money, is as strong an elixir as is Port. http://www.fortheloveofport.com
