Awsome - Bairrada tour
What a delight. Maria picked us up and led us to the sparkling wine region in Portugal, just an hour from Porto. We had a great tour at the top producer Luis Pato, with a tasting of 10 wines led by the man himself.
For lunch we ate the famous suckling pig, with extra crispy skin and unique sauce. We had no idea this dish existed. Lucky for us Maria took us to a restaurant with only local people. What a treat.
On the way back we stopped at Costa Nova to see the stripped houses.
A great day and highly recommend Maria. She is passionate about food and knows her wines.

Refreshing - This was an interesting, refreshing and spectacular tour with chef and wine expert Maria. We visited famous wine maker Luis Pato, whom we had the honor to meet at the winery. Famous for his vine growing and wine making techniques which have gain him the nickname of "el loco". His daughter was our guide in the winery and we tasted 11 delicious wines. After that we had lunch at Mugaza famous for their cochinillo. We had a feast. Maria's knowledge of food and wine is superb, making us want to return to Porto.
