About

Welcome to my website!

I am glad to have you around. My name is Lívia Mokri. With my degrees in Engineering and Diplomacy, I worked in the public sector for many years in Budapest, Hungary. And once, spending my first holiday in Portugal has changed my life. I was completely captivated by the atmosphere, culture, history, traditions and, not least, the wines of the country. Upon returning home, I graduated as a WSET Wine Expert and Sommelier at the Gourmet & Wine Academy, while also obtaining a Tour Guide qualification.

And after my award-winning wine article was published in 2018 in the leading online Hungarian wine magazines about a Portuguese winery, I knew this would be my way. After obtaining the necessary permits, I moved to Portugal, where I have since completed the ‘Essentials’ and the ‘Masters’ training at the Symington Family, the famous Port wine producer, and also at the ViniPortugal, the Interprofessional Organisation of Portuguese Wine. And I became an intermediate-level Sherry Expert at the Spanish Sherry Academy, as well. I am currently working as a freelance wine expert and sommelier, and also organizing wine tours, mainly in the special wine regions of southern Portugal, for both foreign and Hungarian wine lovers.
And in 2022, I was honored to be able to participate in the XIV. Algarve Wine Competition.

As a wine contributor, my articles on Portuguese wines are regularly published in different magazines of the world. My publications are published under the name ‘LiVinhos – Sommelier girl tastes Portugal’ on my social media platforms, as well.

Find my tips and inspirations for Portuguese wines on my website! My Wine Bar is a guide to what to drink from Portugal. Every wine is tasted by me. No points, no scores, just honest, independent recommendations.
