Great Portuguese food and wine were on hand during my recent press trip to Portugal as a guest of Esporão and Quinta dos Murças. The regions of Alentejo and Douro where the two wineries are located, respectively, were also dramatic, and dramatically different. Here are links to experience some of the many highlights:
A Portuguese Sparkling Wine to Pair with Cured Meat, Cheese, Octopus, and More
188 Kinds of Wine Grapes Growing at Herdade do Esporão in Portugal
The Ultimate Picnic Table, Piles of Pork, and Love for Oaked White Wines
Old Port, Fresh Oranges, and the Perfect Dessert in Portugal
Dizzying Heights, Hairpin Curves, and The Vineyards of the Douro
