Portuguese Wines
Join us for a journey through Portugal’s Douro Valley where steep, terraced vineyards rise above the river and indigenous grapes like
Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz shape wines of depth, structure, and alma.
On Thursday April 23rd, Venha provar a lineup that moves from vibrant and approachable to complex and age-worthy, paired
with cheeses by Certified Cheese Professional Devin Lamma and wine education by Certified Sommelier Greta Arendsen. Featuring selections
from Quinta do Vallado, we’ll explore a full spectrum of styles that range from fresh, citrus-driven whites and aromatic Moscatel to
powerful Douro reds and the timeless elegance of Port. Do seco ao fortificado.
