Jorge Monteiro, ViniPortugal CEO, says that «Porto and Lisboa were targeted as priority areas to organize the workshops “By the Glass”, promoted by ViniPortugal. The main objective is to train the national catering industry / Horeca Channel, to enhance the knowledge about the national wine and inform about the numerous advantages of the service “By the Glass”.
