Portugieser Blauer - California Wine - who knows one?

I know that Portugieser Blauer is a grape variety that is
cultivated in CA, but haven't been able to find a wine that's
made from it (100%). Anyone run across one or know for sure?
Blauer Portugieser ("blue portuguese") is Austria's second most
prolific red grape (after Zweigelt), but has little aspirations to
top quality.
I've never heard this grape being grown anywhere except Eastern
Europe - in Hungary it's called oporto or kék oporto, btw.
