From shockingly good $12 values to luxurious wines ready for the most special of occasions, you're going to find wines from Esporão that thrill and delight you. And because the estate is especially famous in Portugal for their olive oil, we'll even have that available to try as well.
This winery has been defining Portuguese wine quality for more than 50 years now at their home winery in Alentejo and at their outposts in Vinho Verde and theDouro. Their own estate has been certified organic since 2019 and they perfectly blend the best parts of modern, clean, winemaking with old Portuguese traditions. Like using only native yeasts for their estate wines, fermenting their reds in the traditional marble lagar and aging the wines in a mix of cask, amphorae and steel.
These are exciting wines from one of Europe's most dynamic wine regions. The tasting is free and no RSVP needed. Just bring all your wine-loving friends along on Saturday, October 24, and get to know Portugal in delicious detail!
