4 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Portuguese and 1 more

Azores islands is one of the rare volcanic wine-growing regions. Thirty-three grape varieties are currently authorized on the Azores, three of them are autochthonous (verdelho, arinto dos Açores, terrantez do pico).
Just think of the romance that surrounds wines grown in soils born of molten earth and ash. Volcanic wine regions are home to some of the most intriguing and characterful wines in the world. Wines grown on Azorean soils often have high acidity, a savory character, salinity, and stony flavors. In a world now thirsting for new flavors, exotic local varieties, and traditional wine styles, this alone makes volcanic wines worth a look
