About this experience
It takes place at Taylor’s, one of the oldest Port wine houses in the world, established in 1692, offering guests the chance to discover authentic Port wines in a carefully designed setting that reflects centuries of tradition.
Unlike a standard tasting, this experience is structured as a guided journey through three distinct Port styles, allowing guests to understand the differences in profile, ageing and winemaking style — from a fresh White Port to a rich LBV and a complex 10-Year-Old Tawny.
It is also elevated by a carefully selected food pairing, either a traditional Pastel de Nata or artisanal Vinte Vinte chocolate, which enhances the tasting and adds a distinctly Portuguese touch.
Overall, it’s a refined, accessible introduction to Port wine culture, combining storytelling, education, and sensory discovery in one experience.

Itinerary and highlights
Savour the timeless flavours of Port wine with a curated tasting at Taylor’s, one of the oldest and most prestigious founding Port houses, established in 1692. Located in the heart of Lisbon’s historic Alfama district, next to the Chafariz d’El Rei — the city’s first public fountain — Taylor’s offers a refined and memorable tasting experience that blends tradition, quality, and local charm.
During the session, you’ll explore the unique characteristics of three distinctive Port styles: Chip Dry Extra Dry White, the original dry white Port known for its crisp and refreshing profile; Late Bottled Vintage (LBV), a rich and full-bodied wine first developed by Taylor’s in the 1970s; and 10-Year-Old Tawny, aged in seasoned oak casks to achieve a smooth, mellow complexity.
To complete the experience, guests may choose between two pairing options:
1. A traditional Pastel de Nata, Portugal’s iconic custard tart; or
2. Three Vinte Vinte chocolate squares, offering a rich and artisanal chocolate pairing alternative.
Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or new to Port, this experience offers an elegant introduction to the depth and richness of Taylor’s heritage.
