Full Day Tour in Douro Valley with Wine Tasting

We proceed to a Porto winemaker cellar in the region. We will typically will take you to Quinta de Santa Eufémia, Quinta das Lamelas or Quinta do Mourão, depending on the date and availability. Here you will enjoy a Port wine tasting session, that will last around 45 minutes. You will have the chance to meet and greet the host and he will share some of his stories and details of his art and facilities. The visit will include a tour to the production site with detail explanation of the wine making process. The wine tasting include standard and superior wines of different port wines; typically they will include a white Port with 20 years, a ruby vintage, a regular Twany (from 2007, 2008 or 2009) and a Twany reserve with 20 years. Additional wine tasting of superior wines may be available on site with extra charge.

Before lunch, there is a second stop for sightseeing in the famous viewpoint of São Leonardo da Galafura, a place immortalized in one of Miguel Torga’s poem. We will here also delight you with another glass of Port wine, preparing the rest of your tour.
