It's harvest time in the Douro. The harvest is still halfway through, but prospects for next year are already looking good. The Douro region, known for the production of Port wine and other quality wines, is now experiencing the most intense period of the year for producers.
The newspaper sent a report to São João da Pesqueira, one of the most emblematic towns in the Demarcated Douro Region. This municipality, situated in the heart of the Upper Douro Wine Region, is one of the main hubs of Portuguese wine production.
The harvest in the Douro involves thousands of workers and producers annually who dedicate this season to collecting the grapes that give rise to the region's prestigious wines. This moment is considered crucial for the quality of the final product.
