Port in your supermarket

Post by WineLoverPT »

I found myself in the supermarket today, looking at the "port" section.
And it set me wondering what was on the shelves of supermarkets (not wine shops) in other countries.

Perhaps people might like to post theirs.

This is Continente (used to be Modelo) in Portalegre, Portugal - the population of the city is ~16,000, and of the municipality is ~26,000.
