Veedha

Couldn't resist the label.  This was a 'staff pick' at the LCBO checkout.

Wine Spectator gave this DOC Portugal wine a score of 90 points.   From the Duoro Valley, "the world's oldest demareated region".  Sounds impressive until you realize the year was just 1756, only about 260 years ago.  There are much older wineries and regions, they just weren't classified as such.

I managed to whack my way through a long list of 'to dos' today.  Started with a 6 a.m. yoga class, got my 'Smart Serve' online (4 hours), printed and prepped for the BPYC AGM tomorrow, made the final choice for the kitchen reno countertop, picked the sink and faucets, picked up the book for next week's book club.

Veedha means life.

And life is good.
