Bairrada DOC
Bairrada is a Portuguese wine region located in the Beira province. The region has Portugal's highest wine classification as a Denominação de Origem Controlada (DOC). It is located close to the Atlantic which ocean currents have a moderating effect on the climate. The region is bordered to the north by the Lafões IPR and to the east by the Dão DOC. The region is known for its deep colored tannic red wines that often have bell pepper and black currant flavors as well its emerging rosé production. The boundaries of the Bairrada DOC includes the municipalities of Anadia, Cantanhede, Mealhada and Oliveira do Bairro.
History
Viticulture in the Bairrada has existed since at least the 10th century, when the region gained independence from the Moors. Located just south of the major Port wine producing center of Oporto, the fortunes of Bairrada were on the upswing during the 17th century when Port producers, eager to supply the growing British market, would blend Bairrada wines with the product coming from the Douro.

Carousel
by: Bratt PackYou Ready
We're gonna take you on a ride
For 2 triple O
Hang on here we go
We're gonna send you on a carousel
Smoothin' like a bad boy,
I'm not a hussler
But I'll play it if you call me that
Soft like the lotion
That I rub right on your back
(That I rub right on your back)
I feel I should sing
My eyes can't complain
When the set becomes clear of you
Just like a ride, hope on and try
Let me take you
Take you on all around like a carousel
Never gonna run away, make you go down
I'll hold you tight, I'll be with you tonight
I'll never let you fall unless I fall in love with you
So now you took a ride, come on get in line
Go around for the second time
I'm the one for you, let me show you what I'll do
I'm gonna make your heart one two
I used to sit and worry all day
Work my job and get my pay
When my mind was goin a stray
Hopin' i could get to go play
I see ya girls lookin so fine
With the hopes of makin her mind
Baby girl just give me a sign
Tell me I'm a waste of my time
Because I wanna kick it with you,
All the things a lover could do
Ain't no lie with tellin the true
If your old i'll make you feel new
Cause girl you got me under your self
It ain't hard it's easy to tell
Like my rhyme will do you quite well
