Picture this: you’re on the train, outside your window breathtaking landscapes carved by a serpentine river roll past. On the river’s banks, sun-drenched, terraced vineyards seem to touch the sky. Welcome to Portugal’s Douro Valley. 
But the gorgeous scenery is only the beginning of what Portugal’s wine scene has to offer. In this episode of Wine Tripping, Amanda is your guide to one of the world’s most stunning (and underrated) wine regions, sharing the kind of insider tips you’ve come to expect from your favorite Sommvivant.
From the winding streets of Porto, to the steep, vine-laden hillsides of the Douro, Amanda recounts her own jaw-dropping first impressions and tales of the month she spent exploring Portugal’s wildly diverse wine scene. You’ll learn why Port isn’t just a dessert wine, how foot-treading grapes is still a thing (yes, like “I Love Lucy”), and what makes Portuguese wine so affordable, delicious, and full of surprises—even for a sommelier.
Along the way, Amanda spills her secrets for navigating Portugal’s wine lists (even when you have no idea what’s on them), reveals the must-try local cocktails and pastries (hello, pastel de nata and white port & tonic), and shares her favorite ways to experience the country—by boat, by train, and always with comfy shoes. Plus, she’ll help you decode the difference between Ruby, Tawny, and Vintage Port, and explain why you might want to leave a little extra space in your suitcase.
So grab a glass of something delightful and get ready to discover why Portugal is the wine world's most charming and delicious secret.
