3:00 PM | Poetry Tasting, with Roberto Leandro The Algarvian poet Roberto Leandro proposes a “Poetry Tasting” of authors from Lagos and the Algarve, harmonized with regional nectars that are, in themselves, pure poetry. This is a cultural tasting to be consumed without moderation. Troubadour and taster, Roberto Leandro has been Algarvian since 1986. He writes poetry and has helped (or not) to make wine. Those who have tasted the verses and the wine say they went down quite well. Intoxicated by the nectars and words of notable wine and literary producers, he has four poetry books published, some containing sulfites. Since 2020, he has been the Tailor of Texts, dedicating himself to text revision and content production with the same care and passion as one treads grapes.

4:00 PM | Guided visit to a local producer (to be announced) Wine has marked the landscapes and life of Lagos for several centuries. Through a lecture and a guided visit to a local producer, participants will have the opportunity to discover the universe of Wines and some of the spaces where vineyards have played an important role in our Municipality.
