📖

Full description

Cockburn's lodge in Vila Nova de Gaia opens with displays on the producer's history before leading through galleries of ageing port barrels and vats. The guide explains how seasoned wood and skilled coopers shape the wines, and cooperage work is normally visible on weekdays between 9am and 4:30pm.

A tasting completes the roughly 75-minute visit, with Tawny, vintage and premium selections and optional cheese or chocolate depending on the package. Reviewers single out knowledgeable, attentive guides and the scale of the cellar.
