In the Miami Herald, columnist Fred Tasker recommends a good number of Port wines of different styles for winter enjoyment. Eric Asimov of the New York Times finds much to like in style and value in a tasting of Dolcetto wines from the Langhe region of Italy. And anyone who paraphrases Teri Hatcher in a wine review simply must be included in our weekly coverage, so we are delighted to now include blogger Mike Steinberger and his Wine Diarist musings. JG
