Vintages Wine Panel: In Portugal’s lovely Estremadura region, 25 kilometers from the coast of the Atlantic, you’ll find the Alenquer zone: a scenic landscape teeming with wildlife as well as olive, grain and tobacco farms – and of course, vineyards. Made from local grape varieties, this unique, exotic wine bursts with aromas of dark berry fruit, cinnamon and chocolate, all of which echo beautifully on the palate. An excellent choice. My note: A simple and tasty red with full-bodied goodness and flavors of blackberries and plums with some pepper.

Food pairings: gazpacho soup with smoked sausages, lamb stew.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
