G'day

I got told that you still have virgins over there.
I bought a carton of Portuguese Port that was made by vestil virgins stomping on the grapes.
At least that what the salesman said. It was very expensive, but it certainly was very smooth, probably the best Port I have ever consumed. It only took a few samples on a very cold day, and an assurance that the virgins were very good looking and I had to have the whole 12 bottles delivered.
Well the courier dropped the box and one bottle broke. I scored an extra carton on the insurance.
It was bought for special occasions however every day became a special occasion. I was drinking a bottle a day, with help from my mates of course. When I started into the second carton the wife spat it and I had to put the rest away. AAWWW!!

I thought I could make some Port just like it but I couldn't find any virgins to do the stomping.

Oh to live in Portugal.
But if I lived there, I would be in a quandry, hunt the virgins down and cure them or lay back and enjoy the port.
What would you do?

regards
Chris


Chris, nowadays Port wine is all processed by computers and robots.. all in a controlled environment.
Of course small particular farmers still do it the traditional way but that doesn't include virgins...


Im stuck with a problem at the moment:

G'day

Never trust a salesamn. It was very nice Port though.
The problem I have is that most of my stories end with... and that is why I am not allowed to go back there!
