Exploring Food and Wine in Lisbon and Alentejo

This past fall, we had a wonderful time exploring food and wine in Lisbon and Southern Portugal. We met the most amazing people, we visited some of the country's best wineries, the most popular Michelin-rated restaurants as well as unforgettable local eateries. It was a enriching experience as we learned directly from local winemakers, viticulturists, olive oil producers and master chefs. By the end, we truly understood the real meaning of the local saying "fazer da vida uma festa" (make life a party)!

We look forward to returning next year for the wine harvest festivities. See you there!
