The Don leads visitors through rows of vats and casks, in a building where Sandeman Porto Wine ages since 1811. A fascinating story, which ends with the tasting of three styles: White, Ruby and Tawny.

About the host

Step into the world of Sandeman, one of the most iconic names in Porto Wine, where over two centuries of winemaking tradition come to life. Nestled within a grand, historic cellar, visitors are invited on a captivating journey guided by the mysterious figure of The Don—Sandeman’s legendary mascot. From the immersive Sandeman Hall, which transports guests to the brand’s London roots in the 1790s, to interactive exhibits that showcase its bold early marketing, every corner tells a story of innovation, heritage, and passion for wine.

A highlight for wine lovers and history buffs alike, the Sandeman Antique Bottle Collection features some of Europe’s rarest bottles, tracing the evolution of English glasswork from the 17th century onward. These beautifully preserved pieces not only reflect the history of wine storage but also the craftsmanship that shaped the industry. Whether you’re fascinated by branding, bottle design, or simply the allure of fine wine, a visit to the Sandeman cellars promises a rich and unforgettable experience in the heart of Porto.

The visit to the Saleman winery was fantastic; James explained everything very well, and he was very friendly and entertaining. At the end of the tasting, he recommended a small restaurant on the same street where we had tried the wine, and it was great.

A tour of the cellars with an explanation of the winemaking process, followed by a short explanatory film and a tasting of three different wines – a fantastic experience!
