Porto and the Douro Valley

Two nights of granite and tile in Porto, then up the river by the Douro line into the world's first demarcated wine region: hand-cut terraces, quintas with rooms above the winery, and foot-treading in granite lagares at harvest. Slow, unfashionable and one of the best-value romantic weeks in Europe.
