What was the TOP Portuguese table wine you consumed in 2017?

[Roy Hersh]

It can be Douro or anywhere else in Portugal, up to you!

[Rune EG]

Two Portuguese red wines reached 96 pts in my book, both of them from Douro and both of them from 2007:

2007 Casa Ferreirinha Reserva Especial
2007 Quinta do Crasto Maria Teresa

One of the top table wines i tasted this year was João Clara Negramole 2013 red. Since the Algarve wines don't get mentioned that often, this is my choice:

Don't leave out your vote for white wine too!

1985 Herdade do Mouchao tasted at Blandy's 1811 restaurant.

[Roy Hersh]

I had forgotten that one. Jeez, I wish I had a six pack of that in the cellar. Absolutely amazing!

But so were some of the various wines from Cave S. Joao; and I bought a bunch of magnums which were consumed in PT last summer. So great. But I think there are a couple with higher scores. I will look through my tasting notebooks from this past year and then come back to put in my winners; white & red.

For white, I'm going with that 1991 Pato.

[Roy Hersh]

Espumante: Vertice Espumante Pinot Noir

White Wine: 1991 Luis Pato Branco Vinhas Velhas - an extraordinary and youthful white wine from Bical, Maria Gomes and Cerceal grapes.

Red Wine: This year, I had many beautiful reds along the way. But in October, I had a 2008 Barca Velha, (that I liked even more than the 2004) and nothing topped it in any other experience in 2017, for red wines.
