by exotic46 & 1 other
The demarked region of Douro, recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage in 2001 and home to some of the Best Wines of Portugal, is the oldest demarked wine region in the world and is celebrating its 250th anniversary.
The region has over 250 thousand hectares that run from the Baixo Corgo area (near Vila Nova de Gaia) to Douro Superior (near the Spanish border). This is where Port Wine is made, appreciated and recognized all over the world; the sellers lay along the South Douro river bank, in Vila Nova de Gaia, and may be visited.
