Roads to Wine is set to return to the Algarve for its second edition on April 25 and 26, running from 11am to 7pm each day.
Organisers say the experience will once again offer visitors a guided way to discover regional wines, using a hop-on hop-off bus that stops at selected wineries across the region.
This year’s route focuses on wineries in the Lagoa and Silves areas, with five producers taking part: Cabrita Wines, Quinta dos Capinhas, Quinta dos Sentidos, Quinta dos Santos and Morgado do Quintão.
After its debut edition sold out in under two hours, tickets for this year’s event are now on sale online, costing €50. The initiative is organised by ISMOS in partnership with the Algarve tourism authority (RTA) and the regional wine commission (CVA).
Each ticket includes transport between wineries, entry to all participating estates, and two wine tastings at each stop, for a total of 10 tastings across the day.
The format is designed mainly for residents in the Algarve, both Portuguese and foreign, and aims to connect local communities with regional producers, organisers say.
They add that the limited-capacity format is intended to ensure a closer interaction between visitors and producers, while also allowing guests to purchase wines directly at the estates.
