Step by Step

If you are in Porto and wonder why Port wine is so special, this experience is for you. The guided tour of the Cálem Caves takes you on a sensory journey through the history and production of one of the world's most famous wines, from the vineyard to the glass.

The tour begins with a visit to the interactive museum, an immersive space where you can learn in a didactic and visual way how Port wine was born, what is its link with the Douro River and what distinguishes it from other wines. It's an ideal way to introduce you to the wine culture of northern Portugal.

Next, you will enter the historic cellars of Cálem, founded in 1859, where the aromas of wine ageing in oak barrels will take you back in time. The local guide will share with you anecdotes, interesting facts and technical details of the wine making and maturing process.

To end the experience, the best is waiting for you: a tasting of carefully selected Port wines. You can opt for different experiences: the classic one (with two wines), the premium one (with three category wines), a special one for sweet-toothed palates with chocolate pairing, or even a gourmet tasting with cheeses and reserve wines.

Whatever your choice, this visit to Cálem is not just a tourist activity, but a tribute to the tradition, history and flavour of Porto.
