Meeting with "Wine and Flavours" 2011

It´s on!

This great event starts this friday (28 of October) and lasts until next monday (31 of October).
It's all about the small (great) pleasures of life: Wine, sausages, cheese and sweets.

For the 12th consecutive year, Revista de Vinhos organizes this fair in Lisbon. It counts with more than 350 Portuguese producers.

Can't wait!
I hope i'll be able to share the best "flavours" with everyone!
