David was very informative and we loved that he was prepared in advance and had a lot of knowledge in this field. Now we know a lot more about port wine thanks to him!

Great wine shop with wine and port tastings. The owner poured interesting tastes, giving us the background for each wine and port. He helped us find the right red wine and port for our taste and budget. They offer worldwide shipping if needed. I highly recommend this shop!

On a 2 week trip to Portugal, this was my least favourite experience. We came here to learn about port wines but instead found the owner to have a chip on his shoulder. He was dismissive of us as customers and seemed to want to offer only the most minimal information about the wines. He came just short of rolling his eyes when we asked questions that he thought we should know the answers to. Although the port wines we tasted were lovely (hence the 2 stars), we chose to buy elsewhere. I won’t be recommending this place to friends.

Davide has a vast knowledge of port, it’s history and the differences between them. My whole family deeply enjoyed the port tasting. Highly recommend!

Davide presents an interesting introduction to the history of port wine, as well as explaining the differences between white, tawny and ruby, along with the gradations of aging and quality. He selected one of each type for us to try, to experiences the differences in sweetness and flavours, and he also gave us samples of 20 year old port. All of the samples were excellent and we ended up buying several bottles for ourselves and as gifts for friends. I highly recommend you take an hour to visit his shop, to learn about the varieties and intricacies of port. I'm sure you'll enjoy the experience as much as we did.

Merci Davide pour cette expérience de grande qualité ! Un cours très interessant (dans un excellent français) avec à la clef une dégustation de petits producteurs dans un cadre intimiste , nous étions deux et Davide ferme sa boutique entre 16h et 17h pour l’occasion. Je recommande vivement !

Superbe moment. Entre découverte des terroirs Portugais et initiation à la dégustation du vin. Davide est tres intéressant et pédagogue. Il parle dans un anglais vraiment compréhensible et s’exprime même en français. Nous vous recommandons l’expérience !
