1. The Vadio project, located in the Bairrada region, was founded in two thousand and five by Luís Patrão with the mission of restoring the authenticity and aging potential of the region. Guided by a philosophy of minimal intervention, the boutique winery focuses on traditional grape varieties like Baga and Bical, which beautifully express the local limestone soils through sustainable viticulture practices. Our Exclusive Vadio Tour offers a complete immersion into this philosophy. You will begin with a guided walk through the old vineyards in Poutena to understand the unique terroir and organic farming methods. This is followed by a private visit to the artisanal cellar, where the classic vinification and oak aging processes are revealed. The experience concludes with a premium tasting of four signature wines, including the Vadio White, Red, and their iconic Sparkling wine, paired perfectly with local delicacies. It is an intimate journey into the classic elegance of Bairrada.

About Porto

Porto stürzt über steile Hügel zum Douro: eine Granitstadt mit Kachelkirchen, Kellereien am Fluss und gegenüber reifendem Portwein.

Das Viertel Ribeira säumt das Flussufer mit bunten Häusern, Cafés und Booten, Teil einer UNESCO-geschützten Altstadt unter den eisernen Bögen der Brücke Dom Luís I. Darüber ist die Bahnhofshalle São Bento mit blau-weißen Azulejo-Kacheln bedeckt, der Torre dos Clérigos ragt über die Dächer, und die Kathedrale Sé steht auf ihrem Hügel.

Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
