Disclaimer: I am Portuguese; a totally biased one. So in order to keep it bareable for those reading this,I will avoid talking about the wines, except for this one mention: I was really happy for you when that 1863 bottle came up, someone like you totally deserves it. A very special episode with the high quality content and technical acumen we are by now used to. Keep going, it is just a matter of time until you get the number of views and subscribers you and your team deserve.

[@visforvino]

Thank you again for the amazing words. Means a lot coming from someone whose home country we do our best to represent! I was just glad to experience that special moment with the team as well; having it alone on my couch would have been nice, but it’s always better to have a memory with others too! So honored to have you as a fan!

[@cindymaceda2999]

I wish I had seen this before a college girlfriend and I knocked off a whole bottle of Portuguese Niepoort 20-year-old port which had been in my husband’s collection for over ten years at that time. He was away for work and we decided to just swig it while making dinner. 😂 I never confessed when he later wondered what happened to that bottle. 😅

[@visforvino]

Haha I’m sure the hangover from that much sugar was punishment enough

[@jorgestravels]

I only now found about your channel and I was so surprised with the quality of it. I can't understand how you don't have well above 100k subscribers. It's insane!! Also this episode really hit me in the feelings. as a young boy I used to go spend the holidays in the north of Portugal and always went through the douro valley and all my family is from that region. When you're in the river and look up to all those vineyards shooting up in the direction of the sky and think how was that possible to be made is something you'll never forget. And when older you get to try those wines and think about the place and people is even more special. Congrats on a great episode and a wonderful channel, hope it keeps growing so you can keep doing this and visit other beautiful places.

[@visforvino]

Jorge, so happy to have you on board! Yes, it's really such a magical place, and I'm so happy you also got to experience it. Thanks for the encouragement, it really helps keep us going!

[@visforvino]

So excited for you, it's such a great town . It's an awesome food town too!

[@cindymaceda2999]

Found this because I’ve just toured northern Portugal for 2 weeks with college friends. We loved Porto and the Douro Valley, Braga and all that northern region of vineyards, stopping at Quinta do Seixo of Sandeman and the Mateus & Sequeira Wine and Tapas tasting room right on the river.

[@Roddy1965]

[@stroopwafel6141]

Your footage is absolute topnotch, a businesscard for Portugal. I enjoyed this episode very much. I have visited Vila Nova di Gaia and (of course) Porto. I had a tour at Taylor's. Their LBV is one of my favourite daily ports, next to Graham's 10 years old tawny en Quinta da Romaneiro LBV. It's a pity port sells less good these days, so portmakers shifted for a part to red wines. They are usually very good and interesting. To be honest, I did not have any bad experiences with Portugese wines in the last five to ten years.

[@visforvino]

It’s a really misunderstood wine, and I’m glad we were able to shed some light on it!

A 1863 port wine is the Holy Grail. You can put a price to it. But the truth is that it is priceless. An experience like no other. A privilege. And, in a way, a reminder that we are here for a short time and somethings will outlast us and it it is a good thing to leave them for generations to come.

We have traveled to Portugal twice and spent some time in the Douro Valley, it is an off the chart experience. To see in person the steep vineyards is hard to imagine how much work is involved just to maintain and harvest, but to think about the labor to plant and terrace the “hills” is mind blowing. We found the food, the people and the wine an unforgettable experience and hope to go back again. Thanks Vince and your crew, it was a great episode.
