Porto Best of Wine Tourism Awards 2019

Promotional feature

The Porto Best of Wine Tourism 2019 awards ceremony took place on March 10th at Port and Douro Wines Institute (IVDP) within the context of My Port Wine Day.

The Quintas, Cellars and other wine tourism services that operate in Porto and/or in the wine regions of Douro and Vinhos Verdes had the opportunity to participate in this competition.

In the 2019 edition, we once again had very high-quality wine tourism projects, with a winner selected for each category, based on several criteria such as the quality of services and facilities, innovation and originality of the offer, as well as its impact in the development of wine tourism and the region.

The trophies were presented to the winners by the Councilor for Economy, Tourism and Trade, Ricardo Valente, the President of IVDP, Gilberto Igrejas, and by the members of the Jury, Fontainhas Fernandes and José Silva.

To bring the session to a good end, there was also a pairing of Churchill, Cockburn and Sandeman Port Wines, with the gastronomy of the restaurant Aneto & Table.
