Visit an antique wine cellar and sample the famous Port wine straight from the barrel. Here are some of our favorite wineries and vineyards
If you are visiting Porto, don’t miss an opportunity to visit an antique wine cellar and sample the famous Port wine straight from the barrel. If you have time and an interest in viticulture, try to retreat away from the city to experience the entire wine-making process. Here are some of our favorite wineries and vineyards around Porto.
Ferreira
Address: Av. de Ramos Pinto 70, 4440-452 Porto, Portugal
The Ferreira name is among the most popular for Port wine and can be found all over Portugal and other countries as well. During a tour in the cellars, visitors can sample aged varieties and learn about the Douro region and the vineyard heiress who gave the Ferreira Port her name.
Croft Port
Address: R. do Barão de Forrester 412, 4400-034 Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal
Croft is the oldest, continuously running Port wine producer and a visit here features sampling three exceptional wines in addition to exploring the antique cellars.
Graham's Port Lodge

The Graham Lodge has been in business for around 300 years and allows visitors to experience the authentic sights and sounds of a late 19th-century lodge. Guests can choose their tasting from three packages: a spacious and comfortable tasting room, a visit to the museum, or a guided tour of the caves.
Sandeman
Address: Largo Miguel Bombarda 3, 4430-175 Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal
The classics included in the wine tasting at Sandeman are Ruby, Tawny, and White Port wine. Sandeman also produces Brandy and Madeira wine. Visits here are sometimes themed, and guests may even be shown around by a man in a cape and sombrero.
Porto Calém
Address: Av. de Diogo Leite 344, 4400-111 Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal
Calém is one of the most popular wineries for Port wine. Founded in 1859 as an export to Brazil, this winery remains a favorite within Portugal with its wide range of Ports from whites to ruby and tawny.
Quinta da Aveleda
Address: Aveleda, Rua da Aveleda 2, 4560-570 Penafiel, Portugal
Close to Porto is Aveleda, the top producer of Vinho Verde — the true traditional wine of Porto. This crisp wine pairs beautifully with seafood, but locals also enjoy it with pork-centric dishes. A visit to the beautiful estate offers insight into the history and process of this cultural favorite.
