Portugal has some of the best wines in the world, and if you enjoy drinking, there are many amazing places you should visit. The most famous wines may come from France, Italy, and Spain, but Portugal definitely has a lot to offer. Here are some of our warmest recommendations.
Try Port in Porto
If you visit Portugal, you’re probably going to check out Porto anyway. Why not try some of the delicious local wines you can find in the city or just outside of it, in the famous wine region of Duoro Valley. If you have time, definitely schedule a trip and check out the shops and restaurants located there.
Vinho Verde Route
Portugal’s Vinho Verde is the local “green wine” made of grapes that grow in the cooler part of the country. The grapes are harvested before they ripen, which gives the wine an acidic and floral finish with just a little bit of sweetness.
Try Famous Madeira
Madeira is probably the most famous wine from Portugal. It’s made in the tropical climate and comes in a range from dry to sweet. You probably know about popular Madieria wines like HM Borges, Henriques & Henriques, and J. Faria & Flihos.
