Douro Table Wines (Part 3).
After having flowed for more than 500km from its source in the Soria hills, quenching the thirst of arid, central Spain, the Duero becomes the Douro as it crosses the border into Portugal and its identity morphs. Not only does its name change but so do all the related traditions and histories associated with its banks. In this episode, Isabelle uses wine as a vehicle to understanding how a single river can yield such different results either side of a manmade frontier. She compares and contrasts the resulting wines and meets their winemakers, wondering whether or not these Iberian brothers may have more in common than they might think.

Although an area now making exceptional table wines, the Douro Valley is best known the world over as the home of Port.

In this episode Isabelle sets out to decipher Port: its history, what it means in a modern context and investigates the related rites and rituals that leave onlookers rather bemused. She follows a grape from vine to glass, stomps her fare share during the foot treading of harvest and learns a thing or two about the art of blending that can make or break a Port wine.
