Portugal has undergone something of a wine revolution over the past two decades, modernizing its winemaking technologies, styles and attitudes.

But it is now attracting much attention for its New wave of Rich, ripe table wines, especially the reds of the Douro Valley. Portugal's place in the wine world is arguably more about its cork production than its wine, but that largely depends on which period of history you choose.
