Cheese and Port Wine Pairing Activity

Cheese and Port Wine Pairing Activity

You will be having a Port Wine Tasting in a historical building in the heart of Vila Nova de Gaia, the one and only town for Port Wine aging and commercialization. In this tasting, you will be trying 4 different categories of Port Wine paired with a chesse platter, with explanations from our attentive and friendly staff. About us The Quevedo Family has been producing Port Wine for more than 5 generations, but the actual company was only founded in 1993. This makes us one of the most recent Port Wine Houses from the Douro. With less than 30 years of existence, we feel we are at the beginning of our journey and every day is a fresh page added to what we like to do most: explore all the ways wines can be enjoyed. For us, making wine is about having fun making friends and helping friends make more friends. Friends to celebrate happy times, friends for times in need. No showing off, nothing to prove. Just good moments to appreciate each other’s company.
