Check to see if Wine & Soul is now taking visitors. They were still doing some additions last year so not sure if they will be up and running for tourist by the time you go. Very close to de la Rosa (ok close for the Douro that is LOL).
Quinta da Roeda is good to visit and next door to Bomfim.
Sadly the bistro at Quinta do Tedo will be closed by then, it’s a great place to eat lunch. As in one of the best last time I was there. However, still worth visiting for their Ports and Douro wines.
If you have time, take the train up river to the last stop. Hang out for a bit then come back on it. Worth the several hours to see how fast things get remote and it’s just beautiful. And you’ll see some very famous quinta’s (Vesuvio, Taylor’s Vargellas, Cockburn’s Canais, Dow’s Senhora d. Ribeira, Roriz, Graham’s Malvedos, and a bunch more). Last time I hung out at the last train stop a local gave me some wine he made. I’ll just say it was rough around the edges, but the experience will last a lifetime.
I assume you’ve seen the other Douro thread so if you need more up river things just ask.
As for back in Gaia/Porto. Yeatman is perfectly situated to get around very easily to all the major Lodges. And a moderate walk across the bridge to Porto.
For dinner, I’d recommend Opaparico. Tell Sergio I sent you and be prepared for a long and wonderful meal. Plus they’ve got a killer wine list you can chose from or ask Sergio to just pair some things with the dishes. My all time favorite place. If you go door will be locked when you get there, just knock. You need to make a reservation 30-days out (they don’t allow any prior to 30 days) as it will book up fast.
Yeatman…has a killer and I mean killer wine list. Mostly Douro wines and Ports but other things as well. Some pricey some well priced, by the glass or bottle. And the hotel itself is just amazing. Oh and one of the only places for 100 Euros where you can get a glass of Scion in case you want a very special old Port.
Of course Vinum restuarant at Graham’s Lodge is great.
Ferreira Lodge has great historical stuff in it worth the few Euros entry.
if you need more just ask.
