Diane's Most Excellent Adventures
Nothing like port tasting in the morning! Our bus picked us up and we drove up the side of one of the mountains here ( not like the Rockies ) on a very narrow switchback road. The bus driver kept us on the road but lot of people couldn't look outside.
The driveways into these estates are usually lined with cypress trees such as the ones in the picture as a sign of welcome. We were greeted by our guide dressed in the black cape and flat Spanish hat typical of the Sandman logo. It was a good tour and tasted some white and red port. I haven't enjoyed the white ports as well as the red ones. One thing I also learned was that as some of the white port ages it gets darker in colour while some of the red ports go white the older they get.
