Bone-dry Wine Tasting
Harm Heijmerink
Discover the Portuguese world of wine – in a relaxed way.
Costs: from € 28.00 pp
Duration: 2 - 2.5 hours
Where: On location* or at Quinta Jabuti in Moncarapacho

The ultimate holiday feeling often starts with a good glass of wine. But which wine?
My name is Harm Heijmerink, and during my wine tastings, I answer all your (Portuguese) wine questions in a fresh, enthusiastic, and relaxed way, such as: What is wine actually? How is it made? Which wine suits the moment? And perhaps the most important question: What do you like?
Whether you are just starting to drink wine or are already a seasoned enthusiast, my goal is simple:
to enthuse you and guide you through the fascinating world of wine .
What can you expect?
During the 2 to 2.5-hour workshop, you will taste several Portigese wines from different regions, each with its own story. You will receive an explanation of the origin, grape varieties, and style—all embedded in a broader, understandable narrative about wine. A light snack (chouriço and cheese) and crackers will be provided to neutralize the taste.
There are 2 tasting options:
1: At your location (within a radius of 25 km from Moncarapacho)*
