In England the traditional pre-dinner aperitif would be sherry from Spain.
In France the traditional pre-dinner aperitif would be Port from Portugal. Tanwny Port.
What's Tawny Port?
When wine is picked from the grape it is red colour. Fresh bright red like fresh blood and fresh red grapes. After it ages in the barrel it goes brown like the barrel, like dried blood, or dried plums which turn into dark coloured prunes.
Here's a Tawny Port as an aperitif. You can see the tawny brown colour, like a tawny owl. My picture makes it look slightly red on my screen. the plate is red, but the drink is brown.
