I guess this will be a great year ...


Wine is much more than just a drink, it is a way of sharing and socialize, I would even dare to say it is a way of living. This is one of the explanations of the election of this wine for a very special moment: my birthday lunch...

This wine made from Antão Vaz, Arinto and Verdelho Grapes, had the perfect intensity and harmony to go with the John Dory fillets with roe panada from Dona Bia Restaurant.


Because I guess (Palpite) this will be a great year 

Note: Palpite means guess in Portuguese...

Wine of the Week: Barranco Longo White Grande Escolha 2013


O vinho desta semana foi a minha estreia nos vinhos do Algarve e deixou-me uma curiosidade tremenda de conhecer os nectares desta região. Equilibrado, persistente e com aromas a frutas tropicais.

Uma Grande sugestão da Marta, que nos serviu no restaurante Pont' a Pé, sobre o qual vos contaremos a nossa experiência no proximo post.

The wine of this week was my first time in tasting Algarve wines, and it was a really good starting poing for future discoveries. With 6 months on french oak this wine has tropical aromas and is well-balanced and persistent in the mouth.

An excellent suggestion of Marta on our visit to restaurant Pont' a Pé in Aljezur...
