Because of its exceptional climate its soil and its south-facing location, the Algarve has what is known in specialist wine terminology as an excellent terroir for growing vines. For this reason, the Tartessians are thought to have been the first people to produce wine in the region in about 2000 B.C. They were followed by others, Phoenicians, Greeks, Celts and Romans, who brought Christianity to the Peninsula and introduced wine into the communion liturgy.
Portuguese wine is among the world’s famous wines and with this amazing tour you will be able to discover some of the hidden gems of traditional Algarvian wine. If you’re familiar with the Algarve, you’ll almost certainly know the major towns that lend their names to the region’s four wine DOCs (Denominação de Origem Controlada – the highest wine classification).

Fast becoming a novel tourist attraction for the region, many producers are not only marketing their wines, but are also promoting tours and tasting events.
