We had a wonderful port and cheese pairing experience at Quevedo, the building was wonderful and Miguel, our host, was very knowledgable and friendly. We feel like we learned a lot about port and food science, and thoroughly enjoyed the port. A must do if staying in Porto or Vila Nova de Gaia and would definitely recommend to a friend.

Wine and Cheese Paring Missed the Boat

Patrice_K, Jun 2024

The wine pairing was OK. There was a presentation about port wine and how it was made. The wine tasting included 3 fairly healthy pours of 3 types of port wine. The presentation included an explanation on how the 3 port wines differed from one another. The guide named the 3 cheeses that were in front of us. He offered his opinion on his favorite pairing; however, there was no explanation of why one might pair 1 of the cheese samples with 1 of the wine varieties. In my opinion, the explanation of “why” you might pair wine with a certain food is the purpose of a “pairing”. Although the presentation on wine was interesting, the “pairing” missed the boat in Porto!

Great experience

The staff particularly Danny were great. So much knowledge and friendly. The whole experience was so much fun. The port and cheese were delicious.

Port & Cheese Perfect Combination

Gillian_L, Nov 2023

We spent an enjoyable couple of hours on a rainy Oct afternoon visiting Quevedo Family port house, tasting 4 different types of port paired extremely well with the cheese. Our guide was very friendly & knowledgeable about the history of Quevedo port. To begin with I wasn't a big fan of all the ports but paired with the cheese. Wow what a difference, complemented the flavour of the port. Favourite Ruby

A great taste of Oporto!

Great welcome, great staff, especially the knowledgeable Ricardo. The port was pretty good, as was the cheese. I am determined to drink more port in the future.
