This weekends biggest event is no doubt Faro’s annual Motor Bike Rally where 30,000+ bikers from Europe journey down to the Algarve for a weekend of solidarity, free riding and excitement.

But on the other side of the Algarve, in Portimao’s Praia da Rocha, you’ll find another passionate group of people who come together annually to celebrate the diversity and quality of Portugeuse Wine.

Portuguese Wine Festival

If you love Portuguese wine or are curious to learn learn and taste the great selection available from across the country, then this weekend’s wine festival is highly recommend.

The event takes place right on the famous Praia da Rocha, with wine tasting, gourmet Portuguese cuisine and entertainment. Remember, if you’re trying a lot of different wines, this is the place where it’s perfectly polite to spit, and try another.

Since Portugal can boast of a few hundred grape variety, you should expect a night full of tasting and spitting…ok, I don’t spit out the REALLY good ones either.
