Well before the middle of March none of us really knew what Furloughed or Lockdown or even Social Distancing was, how 4 weeks has really changed not only our language but also the way we act and react.
Good or bad I think there is still a long way to go , the one thing I do notice is people are definitely drinking more wine or at least trying different wines, this is only anecdotal (of course) from my trips to the bottle bank (daily exercise its allowed you know!) where if all ground down would form several beaches I am sure, which is also another place we shouldn’t not be.
The Cooking goes on…. I am happy to report people are still cooking from home whether they like it or not @ Portuguese Vinhos we have an online food and wine matching link that can help with those tricky food and wine matching dilemma’s
That Said! The weather has been fabulous, Red wines still seem to be in vogue, I do think the Great British public have a date when they officially swap over to Whites and Roses and we are just on the cusp of that now almost like seasons.
Look out for our May Special wines going on www.portuguesevinhos.uk within the next couple of days, drink responsibly, stay indoors whenever possible, and be brave with your wine choice.
If you have any questions re our wines of food to match just drop me a line and happy to help you out.
