Portuguese wine and cheese tasting

BOOKING DATE DEADLINE: Sunday 21st March 2021  (this is to give us time to organise your delivery)

If you're not already a die hard lover of Portuguese wines, it’s high time you were in on these secret wine treasures.

Distinctive and flavourful, Portugal is an adventure playground for wine lovers. As well as cool wine making traditions, they also offer a wealth of characterful (if sometimes unpronounceable)! indigenous grape varieties.

Port and so much more!

Of course, Portugal is most famed for its fabulous Port. But there is so much more to discover!

Portugal has been undergoing something of a quiet revolution over the last twenty years or so. Producers of full-blooded, fruit-filled wines are more than able to compete on the world stage.

Like to taste new things? Portugal offers wines like no other country. And because of their undervalued glory, usually total bargains.

Join us for this exciting tasting of 3 beautiful Portuguese wines.   From zesty and fresh Vinho Verde (the Green Wine) to the bold and tannic wines of the Douro and the fruit bomb reds of the southern Alentejo - there is so much for us to explore.

Whilst indulging in these wines, you'll learn about wine making techniques, the different grape varieties used, the wine regions and styles, making you a well-versed Portuguese wine ninja.

Treat yourself or a loved one to this perfect night in. Indulging in magnificent wines and cheeses whilst learning as you go.

CHEESE, PLEASE

Nothing goes hand in hand with these wine like cheese. You'll receive three artisan small production cheeses from Harrogate cheese monger The Cheeseboard, along with gorgeous crackers and quince paste. These premium cheeses will be something unusual that you don't find on everyday supermarket shelves and are specifically chosen to match with each wine.

Get involved with this exciting and delicious tasting, a brilliant night in alone or as a larger household.

GOT OTHER FRIENDS ON THE TASTING?

If you know other wine lovers on the tasting, you can spend the intermissions in a private breakout room with each other. Chat about the wines, cheeses or just have a catch up! We'll arrange this with you after your booking.
