Being Portuguese I may sound suspicious. But I believe Portugal has some of the greatest wines worldwide. Many of them beat the most famous French ones.
If some of you have studied economics, you probably remember the classic example in international economics of David Ricardo in beginning 19th century, stating that "Portugal has a comparative advantage over England on wines, thus will export wines and import textiles"
I must say that he was right. Though most of our wines are not very well known worldwide.
My comment is, I frequently read this news, but don't ever find any comments on Portuguese wines. Don't you guys know them?
Compliments from sunny Portugal
