Portuguese Wines, it's not just Porto
Saturday October 11th 7-pm. $55
For many hundreds of years Portugal has been exporting the highly regarded fortified wine Porto. It has only been in the last 20 or 30 years that they have put energy and investment behind their red and white table wines. Becoming part of the European Union in the late 1980's gave them a market to sell some of these wines. Let's explore!
