The Northern Mountains region
The Region of Douro starts approximately one hundred kilometres east of Porto, to the border with Spain. It covers approximately 250,000 hectares, of which 40,000 are under vine.
The Port vineyards are planted along the steep, spectacular hills overlooking the River Douro and its tributaries. Generations of men and women have toiled tirelessly to build terraces into the rock face (an essential element for supporting the vines on these slopes) that created an impressive landscape of unequalled beauty where stifling hot, dry summers are followed by harsh, wet winters.
It is the region’s characteristic poor soil and uncompromising Mediterranean-like climate which produces one of the most sought after wines in the world, Port.
Regua / Douro Valley area
You can explore it by train or take a cruise along the river, either way taking you to Gaia, port merchants warehouse site, where you can enjoy free wine tasting. The Douro region, has one of the most beautiful landscapes in Portugal. Amidst vineyards, orchards and rich historical patrimony stand little hamlets and villages of granite and whitewashed houses. Lovely lagoons, trout rives and steep mountain slopes create a panorama of unsurpassed beauty. Comfortable in any time of year.
