Three out of three lawyers prefer Portuguese wines

Today sees the launch of “Blend, all about wine.”  Portuguese wine, that is.  Co-founded by Olga Magalhães Cardoso and Patrícia Pais Leite (like me, lawyers who love Portuguese wines), the project will promote Portuguese wines (also gastronomy, wine tourism and lifestyle) via an online magazine (in english), wine events and tourism activities.  I’m very proud to say that I’ll be a regular contributor alongside Olga, Patrícia, José Silva, João Pedro Carvalho and Ilkka Sirén.

Today’s heady cocktail of blog posts about Portuguese wines and winemakers – a perfect blend – includes Ilkka Sirén on MOB and Susana Esteban, João Pedro Carvalho on Morgadio da Calçada, Olga Magalhães Cardoso on Quinta do Pessegueiro and Graham’s, Patrícia Pais Leite on Morgadio da Calçada and Casas do Côro wine tourism projects and me on Barca Velha versus Penfolds Grange, Filipa Pato and Aphros.

Enjoy!
