Very good honey colored wine. I wish we could buy Pico or Portuguese wines in Arkansas!

As for Azorean table wines, there is one from Pico called Basalto that is a very nice red. Otherwise, seek wines from the mainland (Douro, Alentejo, Dao regions). Summer is ideal for vinhos verdes. Some are produced rather cheaply and over-carbonated (Gatao, Lagosta, and Mateus are in this category). Really nice one, not expensive, served very cold is Casal Garcia. Probably the best quality vinho verde is Palacio da Brejoeira. You'll pay a little more but it is great quality. Here in Nashville, it has taken us a while to educate various wine stores to get these wines in but they are finally catching on and everyone is happier.

It's made from passion fruit, I believe. Cheri -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.
