Port tasting!

I've come to the conclusion that my absolute favorite thing about traveling is tasting the wonderful food and drink from each destination that we visit. (I really love good food and drink!)

No visit to Porto is complete without tasting the dessert wine that has made this region so famous!

After a little research, Gav and I decided to visit Solar Vinho do Porto, which is considered as one of the finest places to taste port wine. Located in a 18th-century villa with stunning views of the Duoro River, Solar Vinho do Porto was almost exactly what we were looking for. The atmosphere and wine were amazing ... we sat and drank 40 year old port wine in a garden overlooking a river ... but the service was horrible! With the help of the wine and cheese, we were able to still enjoy ourselves. :)



We tried a total of 6 different port wines. Two whites and four reds.


Salute!
