Solar Do Vinho Do Porto - Lisboa
About
The Solar do Vinho do Porto, in Lisbon, was opened by the Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e do Porto, I.P. (IVDP), on 19th February 1946. It is in the centre of Lisbon, in one of Lisbon's emblematic areas known for its intense nightlife, between the mythical neighbourhoods of Chiado, Bairro Alto and Príncipe Real, facing the stunning panoramic view of the Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint and the emblematic Elétrico da Glória. The Solar now occupies new premises in the Palácio de Ludovice Wine Experience Hotel, the former private residence of João Federico Ludovice, architect of King John V, in the 18th century, where it is possible to taste different categories and types of Port and Douro wines, in a newly renovated environment. It is a privileged space for the promotion of Port and Douro wines, where the consumer can taste and buy approximately 150 brands of these Douro Demarcated Region wines.
