November 21, 2008. Having dinner with my lovely wife at our Oporto's favorite restaurant: Restaurante Terra.
We had the great Douro red Character, 2005, by Pintas. One of the best Portuguese red wines, made by my friends Jorge Serôdio Borges and Sandra Tavares, themselves also husband and wife, of Wine & Soul fame. Character is made in a not so limited edition as Pintas is and out of younger vines (still 40 years old vines) and brilliant wine making.
It matched superbly with the Croquetes de Alheira.
