Meet at From The Vine in Lisbon at 1 pm for a two-hour tasting led by guides such as Caio, Ricardo, or Kyle. Sample six wines from six Portuguese regions with local cheese, charcuterie, bread, crackers, and savory snacks while learning how wine fits Portugal’s culture.

“We arrived early and were greeted warmly. There was a lovely charcuterie tray that was replenished upon request during tasting. We did whites first, a rose and then reds, six total decent sized tastings. It was a full crowd for a Monday so it did get a little loud. We learned about the Portuguese wine regions as we sampled our wines. If you love wine, this tour is for you! Even got a small wine bottle as a parting gift.”
