Let's say you like red wine and you have a Trader Joe's nearby. (BTW I don't get any money from them, this is just my personal suggestion). Go there, buy a Tuella Douro 2011. Open the bottle, pour a glass and wait... if you have a decanter, it's better. Otherwise, just delay gratification and wait till it opens up. And then... enjoy this great Douro red wine.

The Portuguese Douro region produces magnificent wine. I've spent a wonderful vacation there, enjoying the beautiful landscape of vineyards and olive groves (photos below). The landscape reflects centuries of skilled exploration of the natural resources in this part of Portugal. A great way to see it is to take a train ride all along the river: destination "Pocinho".
