1/2 case of the 2009 Vale Meao - Meandro for $20.98 ... from my viewpoint a screaming deal.

Never seen any dry wines from Ramos offered in a magnum; I'd buy one for sure.

Moses,

I was going to purchase that 2000 Fojo but left it for you. I checked my TN's and realized it didn't have long legs. [friends.gif]

Drink up as soon as it has time to rest. This is the regular Fojo, not the Fojo "Fojo" if you catch my drift. [imnewhere.gif]
