AN INTRODUCTION TO PORTUGAL

Thu 4 November 21,  7:15 pm

With John Hoskins MW, Proprietor of The Old Bridge.

Thursday 4th November 2021, 7.15pm.
£49.50 per person. NOW FULL – WAITING LIST ONLY

“Introduction” to wine tastings are themed around grape varieties or regions. The format is informal, suitable for anyone with an interest in wine who might want to get a bit more understanding of the subject. They are tutored by John Hoskins, Master of Wine and owner of the hotel. We taste for about an hour and a half (8+ wines from the everyday to the very best). Then there’s an informal supper – 2 courses, a couple of glasses of wine, coffee.

Portugal is producing some excellent wines in the £10-£25 bracket. Whites are as interesting and exciting as those of northern Spain or Italy; reds that were traditionally tannin-heavy are now being made with care and sensitivity. And the range of styles is impressive.
