About Port Wine Tasting
Porto
Port wine is closely linked to the city of Porto, and the region is home to numerous iconic Port wine cellars and tasting experiences. Although the wine itself is produced in the Douro Valley, the cellars where the wine is aged and stored are mostly located in Vila Nova de Gaia, across the river from Porto. Porto is home to many riverside bars and restaurants where you can enjoy a glass of Port while overlooking the Douro River and the picturesque Vila Nova de Gaia. These places often offer Port wine flights, allowing you to sample several different varieties. Many of the famous Port wine houses offer guided tours of their cellars in Gaia. These tours provide insight into the history of Port wine, the production process, and the different styles of Port. Most tours include a tasting session where you sample various types of Port wine, such as Ruby, Tawny, and Vintage.
