Portugal is one of the world’s great wine countries — from bold reds in the Douro Valley to crisp coastal whites and the rich complexity of Port and Madeira. But when wine meets Michelin-starred cuisine, something truly special happens.
The 2025 Michelin Guide highlights restaurants across Portugal where the wine experience is just as refined as the food. These are not just meals — they are carefully curated journeys through Portuguese terroir, guided by expert sommeliers who treat wine pairing as an art form.
Here are four Michelin-starred restaurants in Portugal where wine pairings elevate the entire dining experience.
1. The Yeatman – Vila Nova de Gaia (2 Michelin Stars)
Chef: Ricardo Costa
Wine Director: Beatriz Machado
Built into a five-star wine hotel overlooking Porto, The Yeatman boasts one of the largest and most awarded wine cellars in Portugal, with over 1,000 labels from around the world. But the real highlight is the restaurant’s devotion to Portuguese wine.
Each dish from Chef Ricardo Costa is paired with carefully selected bottles — often rare or aged vintages from the Douro, Dão, or Alentejo — introduced with passion and deep knowledge by the sommelier team. Their all-Portuguese pairing menu is a standout experience for connoisseurs.

2. Fortaleza do Guincho – Cascais (1 Michelin Star)
Chef: Gil Fernandes
Wine Director: Nuno Pires
Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Fortaleza do Guincho pairs its elegant seafood-driven menu with a sea-to-soil wine selection — emphasizing maritime whites, aged Alvarinhos, and structured reds from Colares and Bairrada.
Nuno Pires, one of Portugal’s most respected sommeliers, leads a wine program known for unexpected pairings and off-the-beaten-path producers. For wine lovers eager to discover Portuguese bottles they’ve never heard of, this is an ideal stop.
3. Feitoria – Lisbon (1 Michelin Star)
Chef: André Cruz
Location: Belém, Lisbon
Inside the sleek Altis Belém Hotel, Feitoria offers a wine experience that reflects the same values as the food: origin, purity, and seasonality. The tasting menus are paired with organic, biodynamic, and low-intervention wines from across Portugal.
The sommelier team takes a modern and exploratory approach, making Feitoria a favorite for guests seeking new Portuguese wine labels and less commercial expressions of classic grapes.
4. Antiqvvm – Porto (1 Michelin Star)
Chef: Vítor Matos
Location: Jardins do Palácio de Cristal, Porto
Antiqvvm doesn’t just offer incredible views of the Douro — it brings the region’s best wines right to your table. Their curated pairings often include boutique producers from the Douro, Minho, and Bairrada, matched with Chef Vítor Matos’s precise, expressive cuisine.
Whether you opt for the traditional pairings or explore their wine discovery flight, Antiqvvm’s cellar and knowledge are among the finest in northern Portugal.
