Don't forget the great dry Douro reds, as well! Nothing more wonderful than a dry red with all the richness of port.

I strongly second that advice. Some of the best reds of the Iberic Peninsule are done in Portugal (and I am Spanish). A few hot names from Douro:

- Quinta do Vale Meao 2000

- Pintas 2000

- Poeira 2001

- Niepoort Batuta (difficult to find)

- Quinta do Crasto (several bottles, including their excellent basic wine of the same name).

Best,

Santiago
