Porta 6 - lovely stuff, Al. I confess that I had always thought it was a Lisbon wine! Lovely as it is, any Brit-based would-be buyers/ drinkers would do best to go the Majestic Wines who voted it their number 1 Portuguese red years ago!
Just wanted to invite the wrath of a distinguished journalist too! A ‘fat finger’ might be responsible but in the text there is reference to Brits getting Porta 6 from “Tesco’s.”
I’ve always been a pedant so dare I suggest this really should read Tesco?
We don’t say Waitrose’s or Asda’s ( or shouldn’t) but there, I’ve said it! And it does not detract one iota from the ever readable diary!!
We just commend to you Dez Testoes from Herdade da Maroteira - 30 mins from Evora. Phillip Mollet’s wines have been a top favourite since 2014 when we stayed there!
Fantastic !!! Because of you two we are home owners in one of the most beautiful places in Europe!
Thank you friend for sharing your story and giving us the we can do it attitude. Changed our lives
