I’m kicking off 2010 by joining this lively group. A good beginning, no? I learned about 
at a wine dinner last fall. One of your members brought a 1980 Gould Campbell. Mmm. Still dreaming about that lovely bottle; want more.
I write about wine [www.patriciathomson.net] and I run a boutique wine-tour company called La Dolce Vita Wine Tours [dolcetours.com], which my Italian husband and I cofounded 10 years ago. He’s a native of Piedmont; we spend about 4 months a year in Italy and the balance in NYC.
Recently, we’ve begun expanding our roster to selected wine zones outside of Italy: Rioja in 2007, and Oporto and the Douro in 2010. Thus my interest in learning all I can about Porto, my new and fervent passion.
We’re heading to Portugal in about 10 days, in fact, and I’m looking for some recommendations. But I’ll post this query under the Port Conversations forum.
