Region:  Northern California
Country:  USA

Winery review:  Made in Traditional Port Style, this wine is rich and smooth.

My review:  Again I’m a big fan of ports and I’d never seen one priced as cheaply as this. Saw it at Kroger’s and decided to get it a try.  To be honest, it doesn’t taste all that different from much more expensive ports that I’ve had.  It’s not quite as full-bodied as others I’ve tasted and curiously it comes in a much bigger volume that you typical see with ports.  If you’re on a tight budget, it works.

I tasted this after dinner.
