“Mislene was an amazing guide she was so dedicated and knew everything about wines She made sure we had an English translator with us through out the tour Extremely courteous and polite I would recommend this tour with mislene to everyone And , Sao roque is a wonderful place to be”
Review of Rio’s guided churrascaria dinner with picanha, Brazilian wines, caipirinha, local stories, and practical value advice.
“This was a great example of a meal at a Churrascaria complete with informative background from Roberto - our host. He walked us through the extensive salad bar and then explained the multitude of grilled meats coming from the kitchen. The 3 wines (a bubbly, a white, and a red) were nice but there wasn’t much discussion of pairings. All in all, it was a great experience and no one left hungry.”
Tour São Roque's wine route from São Paulo with three tastings, regional foods, lunch time, and a stop at Cacau Show.
“Excelente passeio. A vinícola TERRA DO VINHO já vale por toda a visita: vinhos de um padrão muito bom que não encontramos com facilidade. O guia Moisés é sensacional: educado, paciente e oontual. Valeu cada centavo.”
Taste Brazil through sparkling wine, three guided pours, and bruschetta at Cave Nacional, a cozy Botafogo wine bar.
“We were given a nice overview of the different regions and their wine making process, while we enjoyed a welcome drink (a glass of a local sparkling wine). After that we were able to walk into their cellar and have a look around all the good stuff. Finally, we were walked back to our tables where we could enjoy three glasses of different Brazilian wines. We would definitely recommend this activity to any wine lover looking for a taste of what Brazil has to offer”
