OTC Recommends: Almeida Garret Wines With Filipe Mota Rebelo
OTC Recommends: Almeida Garret Wines with Filipe Mota Rebelo
For over 100 years, the Almeida Garrett family has been cultivating Chardonnay vineyards and producing award-winning wines with a complex and elegant character. In addition to red varieties such as Tinta Roriz and Touriga Nacional, Chardonnay is one of the most prestigious grape varieties, whose quality is enhanced by the characteristics of Beira Interior: special soils, altitude and high temperatures.
Wine in all its glory cannot be cut off from the stories of men and women who make it, much like winegrowers such as the Almeida Garrett family. It is more than a mere beverage or a significant part of a profitable trade: it is indeed a reflection of the entire culture, history and experience of several generations.
What to Expect:
Tasting of 4 Almeida Garret wines paired with food (small portions):
Bread, olive oil and chickpea paste
Asparagus, mushrooms and poached egg
Pistachio eggplant and mixed sauce
Asparagus rissotto and black pork sausage
