Here is what's in store for you

Immerse yourself in the rich heritage of Port Wine wine through a guided tour of Burmester's cellar in Vila Nova de Gaia, where tradition meets the refined complexities of wine-making.

Beginning with a cellar tour, this wine experience is perfect for those looking to deepen their understanding of the unique production processes that define Port wine, as we learn about the aging process that brings depth and character to every bottle.

Winery visit plus tasting

The experience was very good. We booked the cheese and chocolate tasting and everything was very complete and delicious. However, although the guide did a great job, we would have liked the tasting format to be more personalized and guided. Since after the explanation about wines they left us on our own for the tasting. We came from another where they taught us about smells, colors, tastes and the steps to follow to enhance the flavors. Otherwise everything was fine
Add more personalization to the tasting and perhaps some more cheese and chocolate varieties, as the price is worth it.

Tour and Wine tasting at Burmester, Porto

We didn‘t know what to expect at the 45 minutes guided tour with wine tasting, but were positively surprised. Our guide Catharina had a very in depth knowledge and good sense of humour. The wine tasting started after the 45 minutes tour and we had booked it together with cheese and chocolate, which I would recommend. Overall a very pleasant time with superb port wines! Thanks and Cheers, Rita
Not ideal with little babies.
