About the Event
Join us for a special evening celebrating the refined and expressive wines of Portugal’s Alentejo region, in partnership with Sylvestre Wines and Spirits and the prestigious Marquês de Borba estate.
We are honoured to welcome João Maria Portugal Ramos — family member and winemaker — who will personally guide us through six wines from the estate, offering insight into both the winemaking philosophy and the family legacy behind each bottle.
From crisp whites to structured reds and a celebratory sparkling rosé, this experience will showcase the elegance, freshness, and generosity of modern Portuguese winemaking. The menu, crafted to complement the wines, will be announced soon and inspired by the rustic, coastal flavours of Portugal.
Wines to be poured :
2018 Marquês de Borba Sparkling Rosé
2024 Marquês de Borba Colheita White
