Do you want to hear our white wine fermenting?
Our white wine started fermenting this morning. It has around 12% potential alcohol and it should need three or four days to finish the fermentation. Claudia says it is showing up an intense peach flavor. For me is more melon. Come over and help us to find out!

Oscar,
How’s the vintage coming along these past few days? Have you gotten any rain at your Quinta’s?
Hy Andy!
No rain during the last days, the temperatures went down a lot, mainly overnight. We have finished the harvest at Quinta Vale d’Agodinho yesterday and we are harvesting today in the vineyards close to the winery.
I found this light and crisp white wine, from portugal, and thought i’d pass it along to you. Its called JM Fonseca Twin Vines. They actually have a sweepstakes they’re doing for a trip to Portugal to see this amazing singer, Ana Free. The link is below:
Quevedo was founded in 1991 as a family owned business in the heart of the Douro valley, responding to the needs of the generations that preceded the associate founders. These ancestors were passionately dedicated to their vineyards and to the culture that surrounded the production of wine. Consequently, the company was created as a seamless marriage between the initial phase of production and the promotion and selling of their wines. Currently, the estate is comprised of 100 hectares located in the regions of Cima-Corgo and Douro Superior, producing both red and port wines from only the five traditional port grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Tinta Barroca. 
If only I had a large container like that…..
Let us know how it tastes when it’s done!
