Colares & Viúva Gomes: The star of Portugal’s lost wine region (Monday 15 April 2024)

Adega Viúva Gomes exemplifies why Colares – one of Europe’s most prestigious wine regions in the 1930s, but now reduced to just 22ha of vineyards – is still revered by those in the know. Learn about Colares’ rich history at this tasting with Viúva Gomes winemaker Diogo Baeta. We’ll taste through a flight of extraordinarily complex old vintages from the 1960s (aged for decades in his family’s cellars), as well as the domaine’s brilliant new interpretations of the region's terroirs. Includes snacks.
