Taylor’s, accepted by most wine authorities to be the greatest of all port shippers invites you to an exciting and informative tour of its famous port wine cellars at Vila Nova de Gaia.

Taylor’s, now in its fourth century, recently renovated its 300 year old Cellars to incorporate a modern and innovative museum circuit. The story of Port wine and Taylor’s is now told through an extensive audio-guided visit, available in 13 languages, (English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Danish, Mandarin (+info 参观泰来波特酒窖), Dutch, Polish, Korean and Russian) which will take you on a vivid tour of the Lodge that includes an array of films, images, exhibits, photographs and paintings.

The visitor is given the opportunity to journey into the past and learn about the history of Port wine and its production today, the Douro Valley and the house of Taylor’s, its past, present and its wealth of exceptional Ports.
In addition to the two wines included on the tour, there is a range of Port tastings for our visitors to enjoy including a choice of many different aged Tawny Ports, or one of Taylor’s classic Vintage Ports. 

Since its foundation in 1692, Taylor Fladgate has been dedicated to making the finest Port.

The house remains entirely focused on Port production and specialised in its premium styles.  Unlike most other producers, it does not market any other wine.

Taylor Fladgate is committed to remaining independently owned. This guarantees the continuity of purpose required to make wines of quality and character.   It also preserves a priceless inheritance of experience and skill passed down through the generations over more than three centuries. 

Taylor Fladgate’s independence also helps to protect its future as a producer of the finest Ports, allowing it to make decisions and investments which are in the best long term interests of the firm and of future generations.  

The family character of the company also helps to nurture the personal relationships which lie at the heart of the fine wine business, such as the firm’s long established partnerships with its grape suppliers and with its customers around the world.   Most importantly it helps to strengthen the firm’s bond with those who appreciate and enjoy fine wines and whose loyalty is the firms’ most important asset.

As an independent company whose success is inseparable from that of the Douro Valley, Taylor Fladgate remains committed to protecting this beautiful region by practising viticulture which is economically and environmentally sustainable.  The future of the Douro Valley and its unique environment is also the future of Port, one of the world’s great classic wines and an irreplaceable part of human heritage.
