Douro Valley Wine Tourism
Douro is a Portuguese wine region centered on the Douro River in the Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro region. It is sometimes referred to as the Alto Douro (upper Douro), as it is located some distance upstream from Porto. For over 2000 years, grapes have been harvested and wine has been produced in the Douro Valley. Vineyard boundaries were laid in 1756, making this the oldest demarcated wine region in the world.
