About the Experience:
This tasting was designed for those who wish to discover all styles of Port Wine.
About us:
With more than 100 years of existance, Pocas lies in the hands of the 3rd and 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 Pocas’ reputation but DOC Douro wines have been proving their own quality over the last 30 years.
Recently, Pocas received the award of “Fortified wine producer of the year 2018” by the Portuguese magazine “Revista de Vinhos”. Our Visitor Center has been opened to the public since 2016, having been renovated in 2018 by the portuguese architects Lúcia Vaz Pato and António Mota. Welcoming about 28 000 visitors per year, the Visitor Center has also been distinguished with the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence.
