Vacation wines.
We recently went to Lisbon and a 10 cruise to the Canary Islands, Morocco, and Spain. We had some amazing wines. These are the wines we had in Portugal.

We enjoyed three outstanding wines — The Unius, Pacheca, and Vale de Ancho Reserva 2015 — and each one was exceptional. We tasted them at Fidalgo Wine Bar in Lisbon, where both the food and the wine selection were truly remarkable. If you ever find yourself in Lisbon, you have to visit Fidalgo; it’s an unforgettable experience for wine lovers.

Vacation Wines Continues
I wasn’t able to post all the wines. Here are some more. I posted a bottle of beer from because the label was amazing. I was also ready to join Marie on for the book tour on line from the ship till I realized it was rescheduled. I was sad. Can’t wait to join on 11/30.

Opus One and Château Lafite Rothschild were among the bottles kept on the ship. After the crew realized our enthusiasm for wine, they generously brought out all their best bottles for us. Purchasing Opus One or Lafite aboard was far beyond our means, even though my father-in-law had purchased cases of Lafite for each of his children. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to enjoy both the 1975 and 1978 Lafite vintages during special occasions, and they were truly extraordinary.

I agree. We go every year to Long Island wineries and they are ok. The views are breathtaking over the ocean.

No Bottle 😩
I know I said to @Tom Sandkamp and @Tammy Matlock in a previous post that I had a big anniversary dinner scheduled for Monday. I did have the dinner at a special place (The Marble Room) in my downtown. Unfortunately, for reasons not relevant here, no bottle of wine with dinner. A glass of NZ Sauvignon Blanc and a glass of Rioja. Very nice. Wish I could be sharing details of amazing wine, but alas no. Here are a couple of pics of Marble Room and my dry aged delmonico 🥩. Stay tuned for an interesting post in about 10 days where I will be part of a special wine package being auctioned off for charity! 🍷

Birthday dinner.
Tonight I celebrated turning 50 with a bottle of Château Giscours Grand Cru Classé 2022. It was young and full of energy—bright fruit, smooth tannins, and just a hint of the elegance it’ll grow into with time. A lively companion for a milestone evening.

Learning more about wine will only enrich my life. I have a good basic understanding of wine and I’m ready to increase my knowledge.
