Anyone who enjoys wine knows that there is no shortage of good wines in Porto (and Portugal in general). Of course, the jewel in our city’s crown is the unmissable Port wine. But there is no shortage of winebars where you can taste different types of wine, or simply enjoy the weather and have a glass with some snacks.

O Genuíno is one of the best wine bars in Porto. It stands out for its vintage and informal décor, but also for the fact that it serves excellent natural wines from Portugal.
In general terms, we’re still not very used to natural wines here, so it’s worth giving them a try. In addition, the bar also offers dishes and snacks.
