I showed this photo to Jerry because he has talked about Mateus Rose our entire married life. He flew P 3’s in the U S Navy for 14 years. He flew into the Azores a lot and every time he bought a case of that wine to bring back home. He loved seeing your photo!
So neat to know that your Jerry has a history with this wine. Really neat!
Mateus really is the perfect summer wine to cure the summer whine! lol!
I can think of worse ways to go than drowning in Mateus - lol! Your novella sounds like it would be a fun story to read.
That cardinal tends to photo bomb a lot of my shots. Can't seem to keep him away!
