Based in Sheffield Magellan Wines specialises in the wines of Portugal. They currently list 23 wines and ports (the latter from Nieport) which is a little small but gives a reasonable coverage of the countries styles and regions. The website is fine - offering plenty of country background details and brief descriptions of each wine. I would have liked a little more depth to the tasting notes and perhaps some food suggestions with local recipes. As an introduction to the range various mixed cases are available if you are unsure what to buy. this is a great way not only to introduce yourself to the company and their wines but also to Portugal as a whole.
