Douro

An exquisite combination of tasting Port Wine and learning how this sweet nectar is produced.

The Douro Valley, Natural Heritage by UNESCO, is probably the most wanted hidden gem for those who visit Porto and the North of Portugal. A valley with such an incredible microclimate where you can witness cold and foggy days on the morning and summer breezes during the afternoon. Go to Peso da Régua, Pinhão or even Baião, alongside the riverfront, and see how Romans managed to develop wine by seizing the natural conditions of this territory.

Linked with Porto, the Douro ensures a beautiful and natural landscape where in the past the wine was transported on the Rabelo boats to Porto and stored in Vila Nova de Gaia. In this winery area, you`ll find famous names connected to Port Wine: Sandeman, Dows, Calem, Burmester and much more. Historical British families that contributed to the internationalization of Port Wine and making this land unique.
