Frequently asked questions
What kind of wines can I expect to taste on this tour?
You will have the opportunity to taste a diverse selection of Portuguese wines, including reds, whites, and rosés, from various regions. The specific wines will depend on the venues visited and their current offerings, but often include varieties like Vinho Verde, Douro reds, Alentejo wines, and fortified wines such as Port or Moscatel.
Are food pairings included with the wine tastings?
While the primary focus is on wine tasting, many Lisbon wine bars offer a selection of petiscos (Portuguese tapas) or small plates that complement the wines. These are typically available for purchase at the venues and your driver can assist with recommendations, but food is not explicitly included in the tour price.
Can the tour be customized to focus on specific wine regions or types?
Yes, this private tour offers flexibility. If you have a particular interest in wines from a specific Portuguese region, such as Douro, Alentejo, or Vinho Verde, or prefer a certain style of wine, please inform us when booking. We will do our best to select wine bars and tasting rooms that align with your preferences, subject to availability.
Local detail
Lisbon's wine bars are as varied as the wines they serve. Consider starting your journey in the historic Alfama district, perhaps at a traditional Tasca that has evolved to offer a thoughtful selection of local wines, often paired with petiscos. From there, your driver can take you to the more contemporary neighborhoods like Chiado or Principe Real, where modern wine shops and tasting rooms showcase a broader spectrum of Portuguese wines, including those from lesser-known regions like Dão or Bairrada. The journey between these areas, while not long, benefits greatly from private transport, especially as evening descends and the city's charming, but often steep, streets become more crowded. Expect to find a focus on indigenous grape varieties like Touriga Nacional, Alvarinho, and Arinto, often presented by knowledgeable sommeliers keen to share their passion.
