Spreading the Joy of Portuguese wine from Lisbon to London

At Portugal Best Wines, our mission is simple:

To share Portugal’s exceptional wine heritage with the world, especially with our friends across the Channel in the UK.

We are passionate about showcasing the rich flavours, deep-rooted traditions, and authentic stories behind Portuguese wines. Every bottle we offer transforms a simple sip into a journey, from the sun-kissed vineyards of Portugal straight to your glass.

In the UK, Portugal Best Wines is your gateway to the finest wines Portugal has to offer.

Whether you love the crisp vibrancy of Vinho Verde or the bold, full-bodied reds from the Douro and Alentejo regions, we have something for every palate. Each wine we import is infused with generations of tradition, modern winemaking expertise, and a touch of Portuguese sunshine, ensuring that your wine collection always has something special for any occasion.

Our goal is to make Portuguese wines a staple in British homes and restaurants, helping people discover why these wines deserve a place at every table.
And no, we’re not talking about Port wine alone, though it remains a timeless classic (Dow’s 2011 vintage topping Wine Spectator’s Top 100 in 2014 is proof of that).

Today, Portuguese table wines are making their mark around the world. Try a structured red from the Douro or a fresh and aromatic white from the north, and you’ll understand why they continue to win international praise.

While our heart is set on sharing these outstanding wines with the UK, our roots remain firmly in Portugal. We work hand-in-hand with local producers, helping to tell their stories and promote their artistry. By supporting sustainable practices and championing lesser-known wine regions, we contribute to preserving Portugal’s proud winemaking traditions.

Whether you’re based in the UK or simply dreaming of a visit to Portugal, Portugal Best Wines is here to bring you the very best of Portuguese wine culture... one bottle at a time!

Because at the heart of everything we do is a deep love for Portuguese wine: “Amar o Vinho Português”, and the belief that every sip should be a celebration of life.

Cheers!

Exceptional wine

Exceptional wine. Reminds me of the wine I enjoyed at the party night at the end of a summer cruise on the Douro 🎉. It has a delicous scent and taste and I shall order it again!

Excellent wine

I have been drinking this wine since around 1974, on a business trip to Matosinhos. Medium dry and fruity, with a very pleasant nose. Superbly drinkable, as an aperitif or to accompany fish/shellfish. My first experience was with locally caught clams. None of the harsh dryness of some of the dryer white wines.

Refreshing and. fruity

A delighfull fragrant. white, ideal for a warm spring evening. Delivery was swift (next day), bottle arrived encased in a well protected package. Well done!

Excellent wine

I just happened to buy this wine and tried it to see how it was good. All I can say is that it presents a lovely translucent ruby color, characteristic of the grape, with a delicate, almost ethereal shimmer in the glass. It’s brighter at the rim, hinting at its lighter body and aromatic nature and of course, it taste delicious.

Fresh, light and super refreshing

Light, crisp, and just a little fizzy. Perfect for summer barbecues or with seafood. Easy to drink and always a crowd-pleaser!

Rich, smooth and great with food

Lovely smooth red with notes of plum and a hint of spice. Tastes way more expensive than it is! Perfect with grilled meats or cheese. Fast deliver as well.

My favourite new white wine discovery!

I've had some great red wines from the Alentejo region in the past, but this white has opened my eyes to some really great white wines from this beautiful part of Portugal.

Lovely wine, reminds me of holidays in Portugal!

This is my go to Vinho Verde. It's light and refreshing and is a really pleasant wine to drink. Portuguese Vinho Verdes are unique among white wines I've tried in having that lovely crisp, dry quality that I so love.

Very enjoyable!

A very enjoyable wine, delivered quickly and efficiently.

Wine was great and the shipping was super fast! Highly recommended

I lectured in Portugal during the ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s.
‘ The Vinho verdhe from Moncao was an absolute favourite which I enjoyed greatly in the Fado houses of Alfama . The Muralhas is not only a nostalgic reminder of good friends but a reminder of the guality and extreme drinkability of one of the great historic wines of Portugal.

Delicious wine, delivered fast!

A safe and quick delivery. The wine is delicious, perfect as a light drink at lunch or with cheese or fish. Really enjoyed it! Will buy more.

Fab wine, prompt service!

Very impressed with the quality of my order, both the content inside the bottles and the delivery. Will be ordering again for sure.

“You will fall in love with the Douro. Northern Portugal’s claim as the most beautiful wine region in the world is supported by the grandeur of its landscape and wines.”

“Portugal crowns the Top 100 list.”

Wine Spectator, November 14th 2014

A wine country worth discovering

Despite its small size, Portugal has a diverse landscape, ranging from the luxurious Douro region, a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, to the dry, plain views of Alentejo, passing by Minho, bordering the cool, windy Atlantic ocean.

Incredible variety

The diverse landscape translates into diverse climates and terroirs. That, combined with nearly 300 grape varieties unique to Portugal, makes the country home to some of the world’s finest wines.
