Our Take
Alfama's Heritage Portuguese Wine Bar
Wine Bar do Castelo is Alfama's most respected Portuguese wine bar — operating since 1996 in a heritage Alfama building. The wine list runs 200+ Portuguese producers (Vinho Verde, Douro, Alentejo, Madeira) with a deep focus on small estates.
Bartenders are sommeliers. The kitchen serves Portuguese small plates. The crowd is Alfama tourists and visiting wine professionals.
Pair with By the Wine for a complete Lisbon Portuguese-wine evening.
