Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

Casa Ferreirinha Barca Velha 1985

Another one LadyR wrote up:
Ruby to slightly orange colour, giving away its age a bit. Typical Portugese nose, but with the elegancy of a great Burgandy. A very fresh wine, with eucalyptus, anise, rustic, dried cherries & black berries, marzipan and almost liquourice tones. Firm tannins, though very elegant. The wine kept on changing over the evening, becoming more smooth. I need to have more of this.
