Pinhão

Pinhão is heaven on earth for oenophiles, who can visit quintas (vineyards), tour the facilities, and sip port and wine to their hearts' content. For a break from wine, paddle a kayak down the Douro River, or step in to one of the town's restaurants for bacalhau (salt cod)—and a glass of local port.
