Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e do Porto

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:42:12

When area vintners apply for the certification that ultimately christens their casks with the term ‘Port’, they bring vials to the labs set in this attractive relic just uphill from the river. The labs are off-limits to visitors, but you’re welcome to explore the lobby exhibits, and the attached wine shop offers tastings.
