Wines of Portugal
Portuguese wines are still very much of a mystery, even to wine enthusiasts and professionals. Yet this small country has a lot of diversity, and the quality continues to improve. In this two hour tasting seminar we will survey the wines throughout the country, exploring both older, revered selections and examples from new - but soon to be star - producers.
