POÇAS IS THE BEST PORTUGAL WINE - An excellent wine cellar, great wine, Dona Maria do Céu is an impeccable person. I highly recommend getting to know Casa Poças wines.

Delicious, family-friendly, port wine tasting deluxe ❤️ - As experienced Portugal holidaymakers, we really enjoyed the tour. During the tour and the tasting, no question was left unanswered. We had 4 excellent port wines to try with a delicious matching platter of delicacies. And we also got tips for dinner in Porto. (I'm only writing my review the day after, the food tip was great too!) A clear tip to visit Pocas! You can also do some good shopping in the shop, you won't find the port wines cheaper!

Best port wine / Interesting tour - We booked a tour with 4 port wines and a tapas platter. We were able to try two vintage port wines and two colheitas. The port wines were the best we have ever had. All the staff are very friendly and we were also given a recommendation for a place for Francesinha. We went back the next day to buy more port wine.

Food terrific! - Food was delicious! The mushroom dish complex, dark, savory with multiple varieties in a delicious sauce. The zucchini carpaccio was fresh, lightly seasoned topped with toasted pine nuts. My caviar bilini were perfect! Paired wines did not show Pocas to its full advantage. The white and the red were their most basic, least expensive, offerings. Having had tremendous offerings in other restaurants, I expected better at this tasting. The port, while good, did not show the house at its best.
