The Wine Writer and TV Personality, who won Journalist of the Year at the Portuguese Wine Awards in 2012, has spent the last year touring each of Portugal\u2019s wine regions. His selection focuses on \u2018Great Value,\u2019 showcasing wines priced between \u00a37 and \u00a330 that offer an excellent quality to price ratio and have particular consumer appeal. His mission? To “demonstrate the flair and unique character of Portuguese winemaking, whilst focusing on the exceptional value for money that it can offer.” Olly says: \u201cPortuguese wines are a treasure trove of undiscovered gems. \u2018Great Value\u2019 is my theme for this year\u2019s 50 Great and there\u2019s never been a better time to explore the excitement of Portugal\u2019s outstanding flavours across their vineyards. From the sandy beaches to the wild highlands, the skill of local winemakers devoted to their awesome range of local Portuguese grapes has to be tasted to be believed.\u201d Visitors to the tasting, which is taking place at Paramount, Centre Point, today (18th April) will have the opportunity to taste each wine in the collection which features 19 whites, 27 reds, and 4 fortified wines. A special evening event for over 300 consumers will follow the trade tasting, offering ticket holders the chance to taste through the 50 wines, meet Olly, and sample some delicious canap\u00e9s to the sound of Portuguese music. Tickets to this exclusive event were extremely in demand and sold out in a record 7 days. Marketing Director for Wines of Portugal, Nuno Vale, says: \u201cWe were absolutely delighted that Olly Smith agreed to select this year\u2019s 50 Great Portuguese Wines. There is a definite need to boost awareness of the \u2018value\u2019 that Portugal can offer, particularly in the current climate when the consumer is demanding better quality at a good price. We believe there is no one better than Olly, with his unrivalled consumer appeal, to spread the message that Portugal can offer fantastic wines that represent outstanding value for money.” The complete list of Olly\u2019s 50 Great Portuguese Wines is as follows: Whites 1.
