In 2004 infoportwine.com was sponsored by the IVDP, the Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e do Porto.
Infoportwine.com is an online
magazine in English and Dutch. We bring news and
information about Port Wine. We supply news every first weekend of the month.
We focus mainly on the end product Port Wine and the Port Wine tourism.
Infoportwine is a private initiative of Elly and Herman Gerdingh, a couple from
Deventer, The Netherlands, and is an independent site. If you have
information, questions or corrections, please let us know, if possible with
acknowledgement of sources.
The motive for making this site is:
we like Port,
we are interested in Port,
we would like to see and read all that is published about Port,
in this way we hope to create a platform for the posting of all relevant information.
The
site contains, besides the News page, the News archives
and a
Links page, a File with 6 articles:
In
"What’s Port?" we give a short description.
In "To store or
not to store?" we also mention the difference in approaches for
professionals and private persons.
In "To
serve, to drink and to combine" we give a start to
enjoy optimally.
In "Types" we try to bring
order in the tangle of indications and names.
In "Library" we
review some available brochures and books.
In "Round trip" we
especially give general information to plan a journey. The personal
travel experiences are mostly from 2006.
In "Wijncompetities
algemeen" we try to present some general information.
The latest changes and supplements in these articles are printed in italics just
like the last changing date.
