THE POWER OF CONNECTION, THE STRENGTH OF COMMUNITY, AND SPARK OF CREATIVITY

THE CIRCLE

An exclusive community that unites neighbors, friends, and seekers of meaningful moments. It’s a space for those who share our values: a love for timeless beauty, authentic experiences, and soulful gatherings — with wine at its core.

FRENCH CONNECTION, THE WINE TASTING

‘The French Connection: Elegance over Power’ is the theme of the next edition of The Circle at Morgado do Quintão—an intimate journey celebrating the timeless connection between Portugal and France, woven through history, culture, and the elegance of wine. From the lineage of Portugal’s first king to the shared traditions of terroir, this tasting experience invites us to explore not just the wines, but the stories and values that bind us.

We are delighted to welcome Pascal F. Salvadori, Fine Wine Consultant and Advanced Sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers USA), as our special guest host. Born in Paris with a rich multicultural heritage and decades of global wine expertise—from founding Class Wines, Inc. in the U.S. to leading roles at Veuve Clicquot and Palm Bay Imports—Pascal now calls the Algarve home, where he continues to share his passion for fine wines and meaningful connections.

A NIGHT OF FINE WINES, ARTISANAL PIZZA & MOVIE UNDER THE STARS

Join us in this next edition of The Circle at Morgado do Quintão— a laid-back night of wine, pizza, and film surrounded by the serenity of our vineyards and ancient olive tree. As the sun sets, settle in for an outdoor cinema experience where nature, flavor, and storytelling come together in a truly magical setting.

We’ll start the evening with a selection of Morgado do Quintão wines, perfectly paired with perfectly paired with delicous artisanal pizzas fresh from the oven from our friends from Arte Bianca. Known for their authentic Italian craftsmanship, Arte Bianca “does not want to be just a pizzeria, but an expression of years of research and study to find the perfect balance between ingredients, offering our senses a journey of healthy discoveries and authentic flavors.”  They’ll prepare a special pizza tasting for all to enjoy. Share a glass, grab a slice, and connect with friends old and new as twilight falls over the vines. As night takes hold, we’ll screen a handpicked film centered around wine - Bottle Shock (2008) - in partnership with  Counting Stars Open-Air Cinema— a celebration of community, simplicity, and the pleasures of slowing down. The setting is informal and intimate— just bring your curiosity and love for good stories and honest flavors. Blankets will be provided for your comfort. Whether you come for the wine, the free flowing pizza, or the joy of watching a movie under the stars, we look forward to welcoming you to our Circle. Reserve your spot.

The event: 29 March, 5:30 PM at Morgado do Quintão | 50€ per person (includes: 2 glasses of Clarete wine, free flowing pizza, 1 dessert and 1 cinema ticket) or 90€ for two (includes: 1 bottle of Clarete wine, free flowing pizza, 2 desserts and 2 cinema tickets) | Reservations Required.

*We hope for clear skies, but if the weather isn’t on our side, we’ll find another night to gather under the stars.

CRAFTING BASKETRY & WINE

In collaboration with TASA – Ancestral Techniques, Current Solutions, this event will explore the Algarve’s rich tradition of cane basketry, a craft deeply rooted in the region’s culture and agricultural history. Just like winemaking, basketry is a practice of patience, skill, and sustainability—transforming raw materials into something lasting and meaningful.

The TASA Project was created in 2010 with the mission of bringing innovation to the arts and crafts industry, asserting its position as a profession of the future. They started working with 11 artisans – the pioneers of TASA – and today they are proud to have an active network of 47 people in the Algarve and the Alentejo covering most of the traditional arts still active, in their different local/regional expressions: Pottery, Cane Basketry, Bulrush Seat Production, Palm Leaf Weaving, Weaving, Tinsmithing, Copper, Cork, Wood, Tiling and Ceramics.

Basketry, especially in the Algarve, has a long tradition, with artisans specializing in making baskets and other utensils. This art not only has a practical function, but is also deeply rooted in the culture and identity of the region. The relationship between wine production and the art of basketry in southern Portugal is a fusion of agricultural tradition and craftsmanship, reflecting a deep knowledge of the territory and its needs.

Join us and you’ll learn the intricate techniques of this time-honored craft, followed by a special Morgado do Quintão wine tasting that celebrates the land, tradition, and artistry behind each bottle. Stay longer and share a cozy meal with us—we’ll put together a warm and welcoming dinner, so the conversations can linger around the table and we all get to know each other.

The event: 10 March, 5:30 PM at Morgado do Quintão | 50€ per person (tasting only) | 90€ (tasting + dinner) | Reservations Required.
