Key Cities

Portugal is home to the first demarcated wine region in the world: the upper Douro Valley where Port wine grapes are grown along the Douro river in terraces cascading down the steep slopes

Port is Portugal’s most famous wine. On the island of Pico, some of vineyards, surrounded by volcanic rock walls to collect more heat, are a UNESCO World Heritage site

Wine connoisseurs consider Portugal’s wines to be both under appreciated and great bargains. Portugal is the place to be if you desire the best of European landscapes and culture in one spot.
