CVR Bairrada announces 2nd edition of the event HERE IN BAIRRADA

In the vineyard, pruning marks the beginning of a new cycle. It is also what we expect for the year that has just begun; We expect that 2022 will bring us a strong slowdown in the pandemic – if possible, its end – and a return to face-to-face events. It is with this in mind that the Bairrada Wine Commission (CVB) announces the return of AQUI NA BAIRRADA (ANB). After a two-year break, it once again celebrates the wines, gastronomy and culture of Bahia in this event scheduled for the 7th and 8th of May, in Anadia.

This event is the largest exhibition of sparkling wines, wines and flavors in the region. It debuted in September 2019, a date that coincided with the launch of the new identity and brand Bairrada. The Covid-19 pandemic stole its spotlight in 2020 and 2021, and on this return, in 2022, there are news: one of them is the change of the date on the calendar, with the transition to the month of May; there are others, but yet to be revealed. The venue remains, with a stage at the Anadia Sports Pavilion, and admission is free. The purchase of the official glass of Bairrada (€3.00) is reserved for those who want to taste the wines and sparkling wines present at the wine show or at the table of the local restaurants.

The Bairrada Wine Commission (CVB) thus once again challenges the producers of the demarcated region to put their nectars to the test, from great references to their latest labels. Among sparkling wines, whites, rosés and reds – all with certification of Denomination of Origin DO Bairrada or IG Beira Atlântico –, emphasis will be placed on the diversity and quality of the nectars, as well as the typicality of the Bairradino terroir, whether we were not there at the time of year. normally dedicated to the harvest, with the vineyards and cellars occupying the center of attention of those who dedicate themselves to such a noble activity. The affirmation of Bairrada’s identity is also made with its gastronomy, where the suckling pig will be king, accompanied by the famous Mealhada bread and other delicacies, some sweet.

The organization of AQUI NA BAIRRADA is in charge of the Wine Commission of Bairrada, Rota da Bairrada and the Municipality of Anadia, with the support of Tourism of the Center of Portugal and the Instituto da Vinha e do Vinho.
