Porto Trip Overview
We start by visiting Bairrada, a wine-producing region full of life.
If you are looking for natural beauty, traditions and history, with unique gastronomic experiences and wineries, then this is the place for you.
Here fights took place between Christians and Arabs.
It was a land of passage and conquests, when the capital of the kingdom was Coimbra.
It was also a land for the defense of independence, threatened by Napoleon’s armies, which were held close by in the Serra do Bussaco.
And as a curiosity always goes well, get to know that these men had the pleasure of tasting and getting to know the region’s wines, thus contributing to their export from an early age.
Here we can visit Adega Luís Pato. Considered a rebellious winegrower, João Pato began bottling wine from his vineyards in 1970, becoming the first in the Bairrada region after its demarcation.
But there’s more to visit, like the Aliança Underground Museum – the first underground museum in the traditional Aliança cellars.
