Visit to Cálem Cellars (Port wine cellars)

Founded in 1859 by António Alves Cálem, Porto Cálem was owned by the same family for four generations before passing into the hands of Sogevinus SGPS, S.A in 1998.

A visit to Cálem begins with the museum and then moves on to the cellars where, at a multimedia point inside a pressing vat, the visitor is offered an overview of the oldest demarcated region in the world - the Douro Demarcated Region.

The entire process of producing port wine from harvesting to bottling and ageing is also explained. The visit ends with a tasting of two types of wine and the chance to browse through our shop which offers a quality selection of Cálem port wines.
