What to expect

Taylor’s Port Cellars

Taylor’s is now in its fourth century, and its roughly 300-year-old cellars have been renovated into a modern museum-style route. Expect old lodge spaces, films, photographs, paintings, exhibits, and plenty of Douro history along the way.

Features

• Your tour, your tempo: Pause the audio, replay a section, spend ten minutes on an old photograph. Nobody is waiting for the group to move on.

• More than barrels: Films, archival images, paintings, and exhibits fill in the bigger story, from the Douro Valley to how Taylor’s works today.

• Trailblazing tastings: Try the crisp Chip Dry, a rich Late Bottled Vintage, and a smooth 10-Year-Old Tawny, the tasting that most visitors come for. Kids? They’ll get a classy grape juice toast!
