Current release of Herdade do Mouchão Tonel 3 -4 is the 2015, and it was the best version I have tasted so far. For my palate, the single best and most consistent quality red wine from Alentejo!

Niepoort’s 2006 Vertente in magnum. I am very glad that I purchased a case of these excellent Niepoort Tintos. This bottle was shared with friends from Texas who recently moved to Porto, and were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.

Twenty years ago when this Vertente was born, I brought a group to the Douro and while Nápoles did not exist yet, we were able to visit properties like Quinta de Vargellas and then at Quinta do Vesuvio, we experienced our first time treading grapes in lagar during harvest.
Fond memories!
