    About

    With up to 80 types of grape known to go into making Port wine, its production process may seem like a mishmash. But there’s definitely a method behind creating this European classic. Still often crushed underfoot in Portugal’s Douro wine region, Port comes in an impressive array of rich styles — from the finest Vintage and White Port to Ruby and Tawny, their better-known cousins. This solid sipping alternative pairs well with more than just dessert, and author Richard Thomas guides you on meals to match its many varieties. “Port: Beginners Guide to Wine” explores how early trade gave rise to the wine’s development, the main grapes that influence its character and how aging techniques (wood versus bottle) play to your preferences when it comes time to buy.


    Excerpt from the Book:
    “White Port is often overshadowed by its better-known cousins, such as Ruby and Tawny. Even so, White Port is not rare or expensive, although perhaps not as widely distributed as Ruby or Tawny. Many specialty liquor stores carry White Port or can acquire it, and it is widely available through Internet retailers.”
