Tasting at theLAB! 🍇🍷

Jonathan has a mystery tasting from a beaker with mad wine scientist Ryan Opaz, who runs a wine shop-lab-museum in Porto. The wine Jonathan tasted was from a demijohn of 100+ year-old Quinado from the southern Lisbon area of Portugal. There is no known producer or specific region, but it likely has a healthy dose of Moscatel in it. While most people assume 30-40 grams of sugar per liter, this wine has 120 grams—about the same as a can of Coca-Cola! The bitter alkaloids of the quinine mask the main sweetness. This was a staple in Portugal for many years as a prophylactic against malaria. Delicious! 😍

Welcome to the Valverde Santar Estate! 🍷🍇

Join us on a Food & Wine Trails tour of Portugal where we explore the interior of Portugal as we travel from Lisbon to Oporto. Jonathan Hancock and Ryan Opaz explore this 17th century ancestral estate that was the royal home to House of Bragança from 1640 until 1910 when the monarchy was overthrown. In 2019 the estate was restored and converted to a luxury hotel & spa with 10 acres of vineyards.

Welcome to the Dão! 🍷

Jonathan Hancock, our Brand Experience Manager, explores the Dão wine region of Portugal with author Ryan Opaz. Here there is little talk of grapes since historically wines are field blends with 19+ varieties grown together in the same vineyard and vinified as one! Legendary Alvaro Castro’s Primus is a perfect example of what Dão’s traditional field blend in a unique microclimate can offer. Fresh, complex, ethereal and thoroughly enjoyed by us at the exquisite Memórias Restaurant at the Valverde Santar estate.
