The mood of the group was subdued. This fact is reflected in the style of this report, which, I am afraid is not doing justice to the incredible wines tasted. Our host's view was that since you cannot take it with you (and the tomorrow is not promised), lets taste the best. Most of the wines had been opened the day before. The first one is an unusual wine, from Portugal, Colheita 2008. Very drinkable, with lots of black cherry, though a bit austere. It was covered and people guessed it to be a Washington State or Oregon grenache or Syrah. It is made from local grapes, we do not recognize the types. It had a very reasonable price tag. A 2+.
