What a lovely winery! They treated us to a wonderful tour and some fantastic port tastings. I especially enjoyed the special treat when we tasted port out of the barrel that was over 50 years old. We were excited to bring home a bottle of their 20-year old Tawny Port.

We had an amazing experience! Melanie was so brilliant and we learned so much about both the port and wine making process!!! The tasting at the end was phenomenal and we left with a much stronger appreciation for port! Well, we also left with a couple bottles 😜

We had an excellent tour from Claudia, where we learned all about the different styles of Ports. All the Ports we tasted were fantastic.
