i'll have a nice dow's reserve porto with my americano pizza (mostly pepperoni & sliced wursts) tonight to toast our poor portuguese compadre sadly forced to eat fish. (i'm saving the roast duck, sprouts, and taters & a large bottle of stout for tommorrow - and mebbe a few more portos).
the douro valley is beautiful, tho how they grow grapes on those sheer cliff faces is a mystery.

i did note the people tending the vines all wore safety ropes to keep from falling off.
