Wines of Portugal with owner Francisco Gomes

Join us for an unforgettable evening of Portuguese wine exploration as we welcome Francisco Gomes, owner of Pedra Cancela and Regateiro, for a guided tasting that brings two of Portugal’s most distinctive regions to life.

Francisco will lead us through a side-by-side journey of the renowned Dão and Bairrada regions, helping us uncover both their striking differences and surprising similarities. Discover what makes each region unique—from climate and soils to elevation and proximity to the Atlantic—and how these elements of terroir shape the wines in your glass.

We’ll explore the signature grape varieties that define each region, how they express themselves differently depending on where they’re grown, and the winemaking philosophies behind these celebrated bottles.

This is a rare opportunity to meet the owner himself, hear the stories behind the wines, and ask questions in an intimate, engaging setting. Whether you’re a seasoned wine enthusiast or simply curious about Portuguese wines, this tasting promises insight, education, and exceptional pours.
