Chimaera Gallery is delighted to host our first Wine Tasting and Poetry
Evening on 9th July at 7pm - details below:
Portugal, land of wine and poets
Portugal is a land of wine and poets. Situated
on a western European seaboard, it has always looked out onto to the Atlantic with eyes that
seek out the mysterious allure and exoticism of far-off
places. Saudade is a sentiment that characterises and permeates the Portuguese spirit. It is a kind of restlessness, disquietude,
a longing for the unknown, for that which lies beyond self transcending time and space, and the very force that, time and
again, has impelled the Portuguese to venture out into the world….
The sun drenched hills and plains of this narrow stretch
of land, edged in between the Iberian hinterland and the vastness of the Atlantic Ocean, are home to some of the best and
most unique wines in Europe.
Come with us on an unforgettable journey of discovery. Enjoy
the poetry of the sublime and delicate lightness of vinho verde and the smooth, sensuous maturity of wines from the rugged
Douro Valley
region…..
Put a little Lusitanian soul into your life
Why? Simply because there is no better way to spend a beautiful
summer evening than to sit back and relax with a glass of fine wine and some good poetry.
