Garrafeira Nacional

Historic shop with a vast selection of Portuguese wines.

The leading purveyor of table wines in Lisbon (and probably in Portugal), with top tipples from all the country’s demarcated regions, and a vast and impressive range of port wine (just ask after the year) and Madeira. The reason is simple: the company has been in the hands of the same family since it opened in 1927. In other words, there is no fact, story, label, brand or taste that these people do not know about.

Time Out says “This is a posh grocery that only sells wine, with more than 2,000 different ones on offer and a range of ports that you can only dream of. Here wine lovers act like a child in a sweet shop. You can also taste a lot of the wines here.”
