Real Companhia Velha
Rua Azevedo Magalhães, N.º 314, 4430-022, Vila Nova de Gaia - Porto et Douro
Real Companhia Velha a joué un rôle important dans la régulation, la production et le commerce du Vin de Porto, raison par laquelle on peu affirmer, irréfutablement, que l’histoire de la Compagnie est, pratiquement, l’histoire du Vin de Porto.
Les caves séculaires de Real Companhia Velha, situés à Vila Nova de Gaia, devant Porto, stockent soigneusement une large sélection de vins de Porto Tawny – vieillis en fûts de chène -, ainsi que de Porto Vintage, et maintiennent de cette façon le prestige et la réputation que cette compagnie détient il y a plus de 250 ans.
Dans les caves et dans le silence des magasins, le vin de Porto repose dans des fûts de bois noble. Endormis dans un paix unique, les tonneaux et les cuves sont comme que perdus dans le temps. 10, 20, 30 ans…le temps nécessaire pour que chaque vin atteint son point exact de maturation.
Infrastructure
Ensuite on entre dans l’auditorium, avec capacité pour 60 personnes, où on peut visualiser un court métrage exclusif de Real Companhia Velha, qui rapporte tout le procès de production, dès les proprietés dans le Douro aux caves à Vila Nova de Gaia.

"I had the most remarkable tour and tasting. lasting well in excess of 1 1/2 hours. After watching a short film a charming member of their sales team walked me around showing me as expected the cellars , the barrels and the various info photos showing where their quintas and vineyards are based. I was not expecting to see their old rare barrels still under Lock & key nor the owners personal holding of 13,000 old bottles. i have had had some experience of port and she was able to answer absolutely every question i had. I was fascinated by some of her stories, for example that their head viniculturist / taster started with Real Companhia Vinha started with them at 15 years old as a trainee in the offices. I tasted 4 fine ruby vintages of the last 20 years and for contrast an aged tawny and may have been converted to a lover of tawny. There was never any question of hurry or trying to move me along. The hostesses in the bar/ sales area at the end were quick to offer to get me a taxi as their offices are a little out of the way compared to the other Port Houses. A Fantastic Tour. Thank you."
"Wonderful experience. I booked it based on the reviews and was not disappointed. The pairings and the food were delicious and served in beautiful surroundings . Explanations of the wines were interesting , helpful and not pretentious. The tour of a working winery was very illuminating. Would return again."

"We absolutely LOVED our tour. Our guide Alex was very knowledgeable and personable. He spoke multiple languages fluently and was a fantastic presenter. We loved the movie, the tour itself (especially of the oldest Porto known in Portugal). The tasting was also 5 stars, from the set up to the choices. We would highly recommend this tour to friends and family (or anyone really!)."
Fantastic tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and really brought everything to life. Very interesting, particularly the tours of the old cellars. And, of course, the tasting was very enjoyable too
"Enjoyed the visit to the oldest wine cellar in Porto. Guide was helpful, attentive, friendly and has good product knowledge. Overall, I enjoyed my experience with them."
