OTC Recommends: Wine Tasting & Tapas
Wine flavours at the iconic Clube do Jornalistas.
Join us for an intimate evening dedicated to Portuguese wine, flavour, and meaningful conversation at the iconic Clube dos Jornalistas.
This is a guided wine tasting experience — not a traditional dinner — designed for those who enjoy discovering the stories, origins, and nuances behind what’s in the glass.
Throughout the evening, a local wine producer will guide us through a curated tasting of four distinct wines. Rather than a formal lecture, expect an exploration of each wine’s background, production process, tasting notes, and pairing suggestions. There will be space for questions, reflections, and shared impressions around the table.
To complement the wines, a selection of tapas will be served.
Tapas are small, flavour-focused dishes meant for tasting and pairing — not full individual mains — thoughtfully designed to enhance each wine and create a dynamic culinary experience across the evening.
Expect a relaxed pace, a warm atmosphere, and a setting that invites curiosity and connection.
What to Expect
Guided tasting of 4 Portuguese wines
Insight into the stories, regions, and production behind each wine
Small tapas plates curated to pair with each tasting
An intimate, elegant venue perfect for conversation
The location: Clube dos Jornalistas
Clube do Jornalistas is one of Lisbon’s most charming and atmospheric venues, a hidden gem tucked inside a historic 18th-century mansion in Lapa.
The space is known for its warm, intimate ambiance, candlelit rooms, and leafy courtyard. It blends old-Lisbon elegance with a relaxed, creative spirit, making it a favourite spot for gatherings, culinary events, and slow, meaningful evenings.
Hosted by a longtime member & ambassador of the OTC community, the Wine Tasting & Tapas evening will be guided by a local wine producer invited by Filipe, who will lead us through a curated tasting of four distinct wines, sharing the stories, origins, and tasting notes behind each one.
