Wine a Day

The 2010 edition of the Adegga wine market was a great succuess. Loads of great wines, but 100% Petit Verdot for Cortes de Cima was the most interesting of the lot.

A look at the visit to Encontros com o Vinho 2010 with the guys from Angel Fine Wine.

A look at the Trincadeira grape in a single varietal wine.

A look at the acceptablity of a glass or two of wine at lunch in different cultures and two very different wines from the same winery. The Prodigo and Enjeitado from Encostas de Estremoz

A visit to Quinta da Esperanca during harvest time. Great wine. Great food. Great people. No harvesting though…

A look at the winery of Quinta da Esperanca close to the aptly named town of Estremoz and their 2007 Red Reserva.

A look at the cooperative model of wine making at Adega Cooperativa de Palmela and their wonderful 2004 Cinquentario red wine.

Back to red wine with an experience with Herdade do Esporão’s Trincadeira.
