An evening with Rita Pinto of Caves São João | Bairrada, Portugal

There’s more to Portuguese wine than port. Did you know…
Portugal has the highest number of indigenous grape varieties in Europe, and boasts the world's oldest demarcated wine region, established in 1756?

You’re invited to come expand your palate as well as your wine education with Rita Pinto. Inspired by her grandfather, a wine producer, Rita developed an early fascination with the complexity of winemaking and the stories behind every bottle. She began her career in Alentejo, later expanding to Lisbon, and ultimately Bairrada, where she deepened her knowledge of Portugese wine.
