By the time that many museums are closing, the Macau Wine Museum is keeping its doors open for events such as cocktails, dinners and wine
tasting, offering participants a genuine trip through the world of wine.
Different kinds of wines are presented for tasting,
mainly Portuguese, and, depending on the occasion, the host will take the opportunity to introduce the wines and the museum.
“The Wine Museum is a one-of-its-kind place, which has a lot to do with Macau’s
multiculturalism,” said Wine Museum curator, José Braga Gonçalves.
In a city with more than 400 years of cultural exchanges, Portuguese wines are the main focus of the
museum which opened in 1995. Wines from the “Country of Grapes”, the Chinese name for Portugal, can be found in any of Macau’s restaurant menus, and are present in official banquets,
consumed with Macanese, Portuguese or Cantonese food.
At the end of the museum tour, each visitor is invited to choose a wine for tasting,
then take a seat and relax.
