For the 2006 year ending issue, I had to provide a very special Port website that I admire. It certainly won’t be appreciated by everyone, but this is for the serious Port geek, who appreciates details on Port.

This Alto Douro Wine Region website by the Rei Afonso Henriques Foundation gets technical and provides views and insights into the region, including detailed information that I have rarely seen in the English language. Of course if you prefer to read it in Portuguese you may do so as well. Written in a scholarly style due to its contributions by well-known Portuguese architects, historians, geologists, agronomists, economists and lots of other “ists” … well, you get the point. When you first visit the site, my suggestion is that you click on the site map. Enjoy!
