Last Friday evening after getting dinner with some pals we headed over to Chris's apartment. On the way over to his place Chris and Phil we subject to another rant of mine about Port wine, so we moseyed on over to a Ralph's to buy some. I found a 10 year old Tawny Port. When buying it I was not carded, the cashier instead asked me about the wine and expressed to me that he has been meaning to try some. I encouraged him to do so. On the way out of the store I pointed out to Chris and Phil that he did not card me, and that it must have been because I was so refined and classy. Phil however brought clarity to the situation, as he often does, by saying he doubts that many kids buy expensive desert wine to get crunked on.

40 Year Old Tawney Port

(aged 40 years in wood)

This product of Portugal is an incredible example of an old Tawny port. A rarity, as few houses will make a 40 year old tawny. This wine is olive gold in colour with rich caramel, butterscotch, hazelnut flavours. The concentration in this port also produces a wine with amazing length, which lingers beautifully in the palate.

I did this for an Art and Wine Gallery we are putting on at work.
I hope you all enjoy. I got a kick out of doing this because the wine that I got to illustrate is from Portugal and I am Portuguese!

So yes... lets all "holla back" now.

Sauvignon Blanc

An illustration I did for a wine tasting and art gallery we are having at work. This is based off of a white wine... hopefully i can stand more than a sip of this one seeing that I did an illustration for it. <: )
