2026 MASTERCLASS ON THE VINHO VERDES REGION, REGISTER YOUR PLACE NOW.

Alvarinho is now planted all around the world, but its story began in the far north-west of Portugal, Monção e Melgaço. Shaping the grape’s identity by producing wines defined by granite soils, drastically fluctuating day and night temperatures and a distinctive climate that delivers freshness, precision and remarkable ageing potential.

Hosted by leading wine educator Stefan Neumann, this masterclass offers sommeliers the opportunity to explore why this historic sub-region remains the benchmark for Alvarinho. Through a guided tasting, discover how terroir, tradition and modern winemaking combine to produce the region’s wines, from still wines to sparkling expressions.

As Portuguese wine continues to grow, this is the perfect opportunity for Sommeliers to attain expert knowledge in one of Europe’s most compelling white wine regions.
