In the past I have promoted websites dedicated to Port and Portuguese wine, food, paintings, a map maker, domestic and international retailers and importers of Port, Madeira and Douro wines, plus cellar management tools, as well as relevant information providers from around the globe … with the vast majority of them focused on the Douro region. And now for the first time, I’m proud to present...

Douro Magico is the PORTfolio of work by a skilled artist, Lucia Duarte, who was born and raised in the quaint Douro Valley town of Armamar. Please have a look at her stunning photography of the Douro region, the river itself & her breathtaking vineyard shots and you quickly get the feel for her sensitivity and talent. Every Port fan should spend awhile exploring the photo works.  You can find Douro Magico on Facebook

Rarely have I seen the Douro’s definition and depth of field brought to life as sensually as Lucia has accomplished in her photos. There are actually 6 galleries with more than 60 shots. Her photos are also for sale and come on metallic photographic paper with a “high brightness” in limited editions of 10-15. Each photo is numbered and signed by Lucia and can be shipped anywhere in the world.

Enjoy your perusal with a fine glass of Port in hand and toast to Ms. Duarte for providing us with these beautiful shots!
