A prime location for the gathering of the most diverse wine producers in the region, among Madeira wines, liqueur and still wines, in a perfect combination with gastronomy with local products. Various tastings, music entertainment and much sharing of knowledge among wine lovers, provide for a tourist attraction in the downtown Funchal so as to promote the region’s winemaking activity, its grapes, soils and the traditions linked with the harvest.
The Madeira Wine Lounge, in Praça do Povo, is the ideal place for visitors to enjoy wine and gastronomy tastings, to the sound of different regional music groups. This location is divided into five specific sections: the Madeiran Wine Producers (11), destined for tasting Madeira Wines, liqueur and still wines, a section dedicated to gastronomy, where you can taste the delicacies by chef Júlio Pereira, another dedicated to live
music and DJs, a section dedicated to “Discovering the Vineyards and Wines of Madeira” carried out by the Madeira Wine, Embroidery and Handicrafts Institute, IP - RAM (IVBAM), and yet another section, dedicated to the Celebration of Madeiran Wines, which will include masterclasses and talks with the producers there present. The Wine Lounge aims at presenting the Madeira Wine Region to tourists and Madeirans, allowing them to deepen their knowledge on Madeira Wine and PDO “Madeirense” and PGI “Terras Madeirenses” wines (Madeiran White, Red, Sparkling and Rosés), from their cultivation to bottling.
