We left the hotel in Rio de Janeiro for the airport. A with a little hectic a expert queuing skills we left and boarded our flight to the Iguazu. Service during the flight was fabulous At our destination we enjoyed the majestic falls and spend a lot of time walking and relaxing. Good food was served during lunch. The buffet approach was well executed and provided delicious options for all. The filet steak was simply delicious. The dessert on the other side had a synthetic feel to it.

In the evening the wine tasting presented by Mauricio Roloff from the Brazilian institute of wine. we tasted the wines below:

  1. Salton Paradoxo – Sparkling wine
    Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier, Prosecco vilification.Angel white golden. Light lime and citrus on the nose. Light chalky and playful. Nice mouthfeel with pleasant acidity. The freshness is dominant and definitely a matter of taste. If you like fresh this is easy drinking ?. This is a sparkling wine with medium to large structured bubbles. The Finish is light and fresh. 84/100
  2. Casa Valduga 130 - Traditional method. 36 months in contact with the lees. On the eye brioche yellow. This starts with light notes of nuttiness and yeast on the nose. Lots of citrus (lime and citrus) and with a chew that is light chalky and full of minerality. Lots of freshness and light and some tropical fruits rounds of the flavour experience.  86/100

  4. Pizzato Leger 2016 On the eye light golden yellow with a moderate orange hue. Notes of toast popcorn and fresh baked bread. The palate is full of white liquorice and feel of great viscosity.
