Best places: Wine stores in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal

👍👍 We had a fantastic day with Porto Locals on the Douro Valley Tour, our guide Luis was so knowledgeable and made the experience really fun! We visited some small wineries, enjoyed a delicious lunch and had a cruise along the river. Highly recommended!

👍👍 If you want to support local, family-owned, small and independent business (rather than the big, foreign-owned ones), make sure to visit this Porto maker. Because of their size, they do not compete with the big brands on the first line of the river boulvar - but, man, it's so worth to step into a na...

👍👍 One of the best wine bars I have been to and I have been to many! Everything is right here: staff, wine, music, service, snacks...it is one of the pioneer wine bars in Porto focusing on organic/natural wines. During our 8 days trip we went here 5 times... Maybe more... Must visit place if you are in...

👍👍 This is by far my favourite place in Porto - a true hidden gem. I loved the coffee, the cake, the amazing view (if you stay at the window), but the most, I adore the family and the cosy vibe. I hardly resisted not to hug everyone out there. It is a family business and I remained impress by the atti...

Down-to-earth option with a local menu featuring tapas, torricados & sandwiches, plus natural wines.

👍👍 By far the best natural wine bar in Porto, amazing food and friendly staff, in summer there is a nice terrace. Food is locally sourced and and high quality

😠 We went for a wine tasting but the girl behind the bar, who was very nice, informed us that we couldn’t do one without a guide and all the guides were out. There were 3 people working at the bar, and it wasn’t even busy, but none of them could pour us wine for a tasting. I’ve been to many vineyards...

👍👍 We had a fabulous time at this absolutely stunning venue attending their annual festival. The event was amazing- so well organised with lots of food, wine and entertainment including a variety of bands and musicians. We all agreed that it would be the perfect place to get married- so hopefully it wi...

👍👍 Small family winery. Not as crowded as the big brands' houses on the riverside. We had a very nice tour, our guide told us everything about wine making and answered our questions. He was a real expert of port and other wines as well. Nice place, I can only recommend.

Elegant hotel on a wine estate offering river views & wine tasting, plus a restaurant.

😐 It’s not a museum where you learn and wander to discover: it’s an extravagant accumulation of artifacts, from minerals to fossils to traditional African arts to an edifying exhibit about Gandhi. You are rushed through tunnels and rooms stuffed with all these things with little context and no time to...

😐 One of the local producers of Porto wine with a 3 generation history. They have several tours that vary in price depending the number of wines you taste at the end of the tour. The whole thing lasts 1 hour and the talk is around 30 minutes (a very very general talk). I rate them with 3 starts becaus...

👍👍 It’s very good place to chill out with friends! There are many good options for the quality wines. Highly recommend!

👍👍 Commercial winery producing about 21 million bottles of wine a year from 5 different regions in Portugal. The grounds are amazing, and the gardens are breathtaking. The wine prices range depending on the region and quality starting at about 3 euros a bottle. Be sure to book your reservation in advan...

👍👍 It was a pleasure to visit such a restaurant where one can have a little experience of some fine dining for a low price. For the amount of food served and the impeccable kind of service this place is quite cheap. All of the dishes were simple, but amazingly well prepared, I left the restaurant super...

👍 A small but beautiful vineyard at the top of the Valley. Quinta do Jalloto was our first wine tasting experience and it was a great visit. The Quinta is reached by traveling by train to Pinhão station and then walking uphill. The walk is not easy, especially during summer as there are lot less shade...

😠 Really overhyped place. We were so excited to go here, but it proved extremely disappointing. Mediocre drinks, the vibe was awful (felt like a cheap hangout rather than a classy bar within an old chapel), super stuffy, and generally unpleasant/unclean. Music didn’t match the setting at all. The wait...

👍👍 Food was excellent in taste and presentation. Service was great, she could explain our dishes and helped us as the menu was only in Portuguese. When we come back to Portugal, we would definitely come back here!

Classy, 3-story shop for a 1638 maker of port & Duoro wines, with tastings & chocolate pairings.
