THE PORT WINE CLUB PRESENTS:
PORTUGAL WINE TOUR - Lisbon & Sintra, Coimbra, Porto & Douro
May 13 - 22, 2006
If you have never seen Portugal, prepare to be overwhelmed. If you have, we?ll cast the country in a new light? take you to some places you have never se
en and others you will want to share with your friends in the Port Wine Club. Portugal is fast becoming the destination in Europe. It is so much more than the Algarve beaches. Sophisticated and bucolic, traditional and avant-garde, Portugal echoes to the footsteps of Romans and Moors, soccer fans and fashion models, Mediaeval craftsmen and modern architects alike. And we haven?t even mentioned the wine.
Ah! The wine! Port wines from the time Napoleon conquered Europe and Victoria was crowned Queen? wines that have travelled the world like Portuguese explorers of centuries past? crisp white wines, subtle green wines, sparkling wines, rich red wines? You will taste more than a few that have never been poured outside Portugal. You will visit ancient cellars on the banks of the Douro River, blending rooms where vintners create their masterpieces, vineyards carved into precipitous hills, and spend ten days in Portugal as if dreaming. Better yet, you'll be in the Douro Valley during
harvesting time to experience it first hand... and have the unforgettable experience of treading grapes in century old lagars. This is a trip to remember you cannot miss.
