  • Summary

  • In this podcast episode, I catch up with the ultimate Port wine guru: Roy Hersh. You’d be hard-pressed to find someone — especially an American — more passionate about Port wine than Roy.


    He’s practically dedicated his life to learning more about this unique fortified wine and is actively sharing it with others through his robust writing career, his popular website ForTheLoveOfPort.com, and the launch of his wine tourism business, Portuguese Wine Tours.


    Just how devoted is he to Port wine? He relocated from the States, from his home in Seattle, to live in Porto, Portugal full-time. He’s tasted nearly 15,000 bottles of Port over the last 40 years and even named his daughter Taylor after one of the founding Port houses. In this first part of our two-part episode, I learn more about his background, what inspired his interest in Port wine, and of course, see what he has to say about Americans and their relationship with Port through the years.


    Starboard is a Port wine for the American dinner party. Follow along as we uncork a conversation about Port wine, stateside. Onward we venture to a new Port.
