We’re excited to welcome Alexandre Botelho, winemaker at Dos Santos, to Portvinsbaren for a port tasting featuring seven different port wines from one of the most distinctive houses in the port world.
What makes Dos Santos different?
The first thing you notice about Dos Santos is the bottles. They’re beautiful, detailed, and recognizable from across the room. But it doesn’t stop there. Dos Santos’ wines also stand out with a drier and often fresher style than what you’d typically expect from port.
That means these wines appeal broadly: if you’re new to port and not looking for something overly sweet, Dos Santos is a great place to start. If you’re a seasoned port nerd, this is your chance to taste something that breaks the mold.
Who is Alexandre Botelho?
Joining us for the tasting is Alexandre Botelho, winemaker at Dos Santos. He’ll walk us through the house’s history and philosophy while we taste our way through seven wines together, sharing everything worth knowing along the way.
