Clean Feed Jazz Festival in NYC

We're combining Jazz and Vinho Verde (the unique Portuguese "green" wine) in the upcoming Clean Feed Jazz Festival Sept 16-20 in NYC -- besides the amazing jazz music program, guests will be able to enjoy an authentic taste of Portugal with the unique Vinho Verde Quinta da Aveleda.

Clean Feed Festival is an annual jazz festival organized by the Portuguese Jazz recording company Clean Feed Records.  This year will be the IV Edition and it will happen from Sept 16th to the 20th at the Cornelia Connelly Center in Manhattan, New York.  The program features 11 different groups from New York City and around the world.  The music event is sponsored by Aveleda, one of Portugal’s top wineries known for it’s award-winning Vinho Verde, who will be donating more than 120 bottles of Quinta da Aveleda Vinho Verde to the festival.   “Fine wine and fine music go hand in hand, and we are truly proud to support such a wonderful cultural and musical event as Clean Feed,” says António Guedes, fourth generation descendant of Aveleda’s founder and current CEO of Aveleda estate and winery.  “In addition, we are honored at the opportunity of introducing more Americans to the unique refreshing taste of Portuguese Vinho Verde.” The wine is fresh and lively, so it pairs wonderfully with Jazz. And just last month, it won 92 Points from Wine & Spirits magazine and was described as "one of the best white wine values on the market today."
