Holiday Port, Madeira & Fortified Wine Super Tasting

Cost: Free

HOLIDAY PORT & MADEIRA SUPER TASTING: We haven’t done a tasting like this in ten years—but you asked, and it’s back! So put down your garden rake. The leaves can wait. There's something much more delicious happening at Arrowine!

As the holidays approach, join us for an unforgettable afternoon featuring more than a dozen Ports, Madeiras, and fortified wines, a once-in-a-decade opportunity to explore bottles made for celebration, gifting, fireside evenings, and the perfect finish to a holiday feast. Discover outstanding Ports from Churchill’s, the Port house founded by Johnny Graham, and Portugal’s beloved Porto Barros. We’ll explore the breadth of Port styles, including Crusted, Late Bottled Vintage (LBV), 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-year-old Tawny, and Vintage Port.And the discoveries don't stop there! Experience memorable Madeiras from The Rare Wine Company’s Historic Series and Blandy’s, alongside Australian fortified wines and the rare, Grenache-based sweet wines of Mas Amiel—France's delicious answer to Port. The pairings alone are worth the visit. Imagine rich Stilton with walnuts and fresh pears, beautiful English Cheddar, and artisan chocolates, all thoughtfully paired with these extraordinary wines. Taste, discover your favorites, and leave with delicious ideas for entertaining. TASTING DISCOUNTS ARE ON! Save on the bottles you choose for your holiday table. Taste before you buy—and take home your favorites at the tasting price.
