About Me:
I admit I'm a bit obsessed with my self-inflicted commitment to ushering the wine industry into the techno age. Along that vein, I spend a lot of my free time immersed in world of wine through events, great pairing dinners, speaking at events and filming wineries in Napa, Sonoma and recently, Willamette Valley. They call that all work--I call it passion.
And outside of that, I love the ocean, work out daily, am an Indie-movie fanatic, have a deft hand at gardening..what else? I document my wine journeys/experiences, too, at Laura's Line on Wine on our site WineTasteTV.

Hi Laura,

Portugal has many autochthones grape varieties, red and whites.
White varieties are very interesting, with very different characters, but SYRIA also cold Códega do Larinho is fantastic, with citrons aromas of tangerine and orange.
Portugal Dão region has the most gastronomic wines: fresh, intense, elegant with very nice acidity, made with autochthonous grapes from very particularly varieties.
Just try.
I am a producer in Portuguese Dão region, and I suggest you to taste an old Dão.

Just see what Paul White Thinks about as:

“So far, Portugal has managed to remain true to its traditions, while at the same time offering up a huge range of distinctive grape varieties and unusual wine styles precisely when many of us are tiring of endless New World makeovers of French varietals.

Dao has a lot going for it in that respect: first rate grape varieties firmly rooted in granite-based ‘terroir’ that sparkles back like diamonds, all this shaped by a growing season that’s relatively gentler and longer than other Portuguese regions. Although relatively unknown and sometimes tricky to pronounce, Dao’s red wines offer consumers genuinely new and exciting tasting experiences.”

Visit please our web-site, for now it’s just in Portuguese, but to see photos you don’t need any translation: www.quintadaboavista.eu

Hope to hear from you soon.

Best.

Laura,

Next time you are in Sonoma County, we would love to have you stop by our winery. We are a small brand new winery in Dry Creek Valley. We are farming biodynamically and will be a full working farm in a couple of months with our sheep pasture and chicken coops as well as an area on Dry Creek where you can watch the salmon migrate. There is a lot of buzz about our place and what we are doing. All that and our first releases are spectacular as well. We are focusing on Dry Creek Zins, Petite Sirah, Port and a Pinot and biodynamic Red Blend we are releasing shortly. Check us out at www.truetthurst.com.

All the best,

Jim Morris
