Masterclass
12.00-1.00pm – New Terroir, Old Vines and Modern Styles of Tejo

Inland from Lisbon, dominated by the River Tejo which imparts a distinctive freshness to its wines, Tejo’s abundance of microclimates, indigenous varieties and terroirs create a richness of styles offering quality, moderate alcohol and exceptional value.
This masterclass encapsulates the very essence and breadth of contemporary wine making in Tejo, featuring a range of styles including contemporary Pet Nats, classic indigenous varieties and top end estate and botrytised wines all hand selected by Dirceu Vianna Junior MW.
The adjacent self-pour tasting & networking session will enable guests to take a deep dive into modern Tejo wines in the following areas and also to meet the Tejo team who will be available throughout to discuss all your business needs for new Portuguese wines from the Tejo region:
– Contemporary Styles (Orange, Pet Nat, Natural and Amphora)
– Value & Lower Alcohol Wines
– Indigenous Varieties
– Premium Wines & Award Winners

A fascinating masterclass focusing on Attica’s iconic white grape, Savatiano, one of Greece’s most planted varieties. The combination of the region’s old, dry-farmed vines, limestone terroir and extremely low-yields results in wines that are now amongst the most exciting in Greece.
Yiannis will guide you through the different styles (including late release, orange, SO2 free and extended lees contact), terroirs, winemakers and techniques that redefine the conversation around Savatiano and its excellent potential to make characterful and age-worthy wines. A spotlight will be shone on the elegant, postmodern Retsinas, now re-envisioned by the region’s pioneering young producers. Savatiano best encapsulates the transition of Attica from an ancient and traditional vineyard area to a dynamic, modern re-emerging Greek wine region.
Come and discover this new era of Attica winemaking!
