Overview

With more than 100 years of existence, Poças lies in the hands of the 4th generation, being one of the very few Port Wine company that was born Portuguese and still belongs to the same Portuguese family. The Old Tawny Ports have built Poças’ reputation but DOC Douro wines have been proving their own quality over the last 30 years. Recently, Poças received the award of “Fortified wine producer of the year 2018” by the Portuguese magazine “Revista de Vinhos”. Additionally, welcoming about 28 000 visitors per year, our Visitor Center has been also distinguished with the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence. We have plenty of different reasons for inviting you to be part of a true family atmosphere, to feel the unforgettable aroma of the noblest wines and to see up close a real day-to-day cellar routine.

What Can You Expect?

    Food was delicious! The mushroom dish complex, dark, savory with multiple varieties in a delicious sauce. The zucchini carpaccio was fresh, lightly seasoned topped with toasted pine nuts. My caviar bilini were perfect! Paired wines did not show Pocas to its full advantage. The white and the red were their most basic, least expensive, offerings. Having had tremendous offerings in other restaurants, I expected better at this tasting. The port, while good, did not show the house at its best.

    The tour was very interesting and the wine was delicious. The staff were extremely friendly and happy to answer questions. They even sent an additional staff member for a more detailed discussion of the fermentation process. HIGHLY recommend!
