What you'll do
With more than 100 years of life, Poças Caves is currently in the hands of the 3rd and 4th generations, making it one of the rare Port Wine companies that was born Portuguese and has remained in the hands of the same family since its foundation. Old Tawny Port Wines have built Poças’ reputation, but for 30 years now, Douro DOC wines have also proved their quality. We recently received the “Fortified Wine Producer of the Year 2018” award by the Portuguese magazine “Revista de Vinhos”. In addition, welcoming about 28,000 visitors a year, our Visitor Center has also been awarded the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence. We have many different reasons to invite you to be part of a true family atmosphere, to feel the unforgettable aroma of the noblest wines and to see a real daily routine in the cellar up close.
