Albufeira Wine Tasting

There's nothing like a bit of culture to keep a stag weekend on the straight and narrow. And when that culture involves sampling eight different varieties of wine local to Portugal or the Albufeira region, you know you're in for a treat!

The varietals you'll be assessing change throughout the year, ensuring you always get the best wines at the right times. Your group will learn about flavors, undertones and notes while you sup delicious reds and whites with an expert. With some of the most respected and ancient wineries on earth located in Portugal's Douro Valley and Pico Island, you'll be taken on a trip through tastes both old and new.

Discover how to open up the nose of the wine, savour its subtleties and bring hidden flavour alive on your palate. Or you could just knock back the lot with a hearty 'cheers' to the groom, and concentrate on making the most of the delicious snacks!

Your wine is served with a variety of freshly prepared foods, again local to Albufeira or Portugal as a whole, and specially selected to complement each wine. Snack a little, drink a little more, and catch up with the chaps. This is the most refined drinking session ever, and there isn't a wife or girlfriend in the world who can object. Cheers!
