Description
Discover the world of Portuguese wines in an intimate and curated wine tasting guided by a certified sommelier. In this 90-minute experience, explore five distinct Portuguese wines, representing the country’s incredible diversity — from crisp whites and refreshing rosés to elegant reds and complex fortified wines.
Paired with artisanal cured meats and cheeses (or a vegan alternative upon request), this journey is designed to highlight the unique flavors, history, and traditions that make Portugal one of the world’s most exciting wine regions.
Whether you are a seasoned wine lover or simply curious to learn, this experience combines education, enjoyment, and local culture in one memorable tasting.
Each wine is carefully selected to showcase the variety of grapes, terroirs, and winemaking styles across Portugal. The selection often includes wines from renowned regions such as Douro, Alentejo, Dão, and of course Madeira.
Your host is a trained and certified sommelier who will explain how to evaluate wine, introduce pairing principles, and share insider knowledge about Portuguese traditions and producers.
Enjoy cured meats and artisanal cheeses that perfectly complement the wines. A vegan cheese board is available upon request, ensuring the experience is inclusive for all.
This is not just a lecture. Guests are encouraged to ask questions, compare notes, and develop their own tasting preferences. It’s an interactive way to learn while enjoying the flavors of Portugal.
