IN THE MOOD FOR DOURO | The Cradle of Port in the World's Oldest Demarcated & Regulated Wine Region

- The Douro Valley has always been on my list of must-visit places, not just in Portugal, but in the entire world. One of the reasons why I moved to Portugal is the fact that it's a wine-making country, producing world-class yet affordable wines. Douro, in particular, produces some of the most incredible, full-bodied wines available to humanity, and there's no better reason to visit the region, learn about its age-old viticulture, engross in its myriad regional delights and above all, absorb the immense philosophy available here. After all, it's not just about the wines that the Douro stands for, it's the wisdom that comes in every bottle. 🍷❤️

You are the master in this type of video that, in the end, tells a story that moves us all. The Douro Valley, in particular, and Portugal in general, also help, a lot, the argument that goes through this lens. Portugal is a magical land and you know it. A place of authentic charm that still resists in Europe and in the world, without presumptions and without falsehoods. Being only and just Portugal. Without wanting to offer stupid examples, think of the mountain that Cristiano Ronaldo had to climb, what resilience the Portuguese had to have to endure one of the greatest empires in history and that changed the world. We didn't do it for others. We did it for us, to prove to ourselves that a small nation, without natural resources, in a corner of Europe, was also capable of doing great things. That's what Portugal is about. Resilience, combativeness in "low profile" mode and a HUGE love for our nation that even the Portuguese often do not know how to explain. It is no coincidence that Portugal was recently elected the "Best Tourist Destination in the World" and one of the best places on the planet for a foreigner to live. Do you know why? Because just as some Englishman discovered the Douro in the 18th century, the whole planet now discovered Portugal and no longer wants to leave it. Simple...
Thank you for your super delightful comment, and thoughtful messages like yours truly gives me the reason to create meaningful videos. I chose to live here in Portugal because I found poetry here, and stories that are deep and as rich as time, and it's somehow imbued in my purpose to explore this country and find the many essences of this vastly underrated country. And you're right, the simplicity is the key. 🍷✨
@@inthemoodforlife_official Thank you so much.

I’ve decided that you can make every place look magical. Your videos are mesmerizing.
A very pleasant surprise to stumble across this video as I was researching a trip back to Portugal .....excellent production values and very educational ....thanks
Dear Janz, your videos are exceptional. Your professionalism is very evident. My husband and I will be retiring to Porto in a few months and we are so excited to anticipate the beautiful culture of Portugal. I see you are from the Philippines...we lived in Makati from 2010 - 2015. :-)
Lisa, my wife and I, retirees from the US, just completed the Portuguese residency requirements and moved into our Porto apartment a few days ago to continue this great adventure. And yes, Janz is an exceptional videographer/narrator.
Your cinematography is spectacular.
Thank you very much. Happy to hear this!
Really beautiful filming!! Love your Portugal videos!
Thank you! That means a lot!
Best video of the Duro valley that Ihave seen, and as I just retrned from Portugal, and am reminisicing I have seen a bunch
Fantastic as always, Janz! Can' t wait travel to Portugal. Also I'm excited to see more of your magnificent videos
Thank you so much! Can't wait for you to discover Portugal.
dude, you´re...you like portugal as much as I like it. I love you for that.
Thanks, man. My love for Portugal is an earnest one, truly adore this place. 💙
Outstanding video, giving in a few minutes a deep insight on this excepcional region. Douro wines are the result of extremely hard work over generations and generations, to create the soil to plant vines on mountain sides that were basically rock and to keep it, despite the harsh weather, erosion and floods. And the ability to generate and transmit knowledge and experience.
Awsome 😍! Fantástico! 🇵🇹 This movie with beautiful filmography makes me more proud to be Portuguese! 🇵🇹. Thank you. 😊
Brilliant video,thank you!!
Thank you for your video. Truly exceptional!
Beautiful work! What a life lesson can one place tell - touched me deeper! Would be exciting to see how Portuguese vegetarian cuisine looks like too 😍
THANK YOU, friend! I'm also amazed by how much wisdom I rediscovered by just exploring Douro and the story of its region! Who knows, you'll be exploring that place soon, too. 😘
Thank you for the wonderful video. I am visiting Portugal and the Douro Valley for the first time later this year. You have given me some great ideas!
Thanks for an amazing video on Douro region. It was a great help for the planning of my trip.
Hi Janz,
Your videos are so spectacular!! Keep them coming.
Thank you for your videos, they are very helpful.
The quality of your work is truly incredible… very impressive!!
I have to visit Douro! Love your videos.
Thank you so much! Yes, you must visit.
I'm a Filmmaker with a love for Portugal. Both parts are impressed with your Video. One of the best travel video i've seen. Congrat:)
I'm so delighted by your comment, thank you very much. That means a great deal. And glad we share the love for Portugal! Thanks for watching my videos, man. 🙏✨
Best presentation of Douro Valley: I'm currently in Miami but visited more than 40 countries in 4 continents, never saw such stunning places as the Douro River. I born down the river in a Village called Castelo de Paiva, place of beautiful scenery, a river of same name was voted the purest river water in Europe.
Besides the evident quality of the video, you seem to have an interest in history, as so, I recommend you visit Braga and especially Guimarães where Portugal was born!
Wow, what a great video, thanks for sharing it. Absolutely gorgeous views.
Thank you for watching, and appreciate the compliment!
Your videos are exeptional!
Thank you, Melanie! Absolutely appreciate your wonderful comment. ✨
Great video, well done!
My husband and I are seriously considering moving to Portugal from the United States, and wow, your videos have convinced me that this beautiful country is where I want to be! The quality and content of your videos is fantastic.
I absolutely ♥️ your videos. I am totally transported when I’m watching.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad to hear that! ❤️
Dude this video is amazing. I changed half of my trip to Portugal because of this
Wow, I just loved your take on the Douro! You have an excellent tone and articulation for narration. I found your voice as soothing to me as the amazing scenery you recorded. I had to click that subscribe button! Well done.
Incredible film! 🍇🍷
Perfect video!
Well done !!
Great video and will definitely check out this region when we visit this January. Appreciate your hotel and restaurant recommendations as well.
Great as always 💚 we miss taking our travelers to Douro!!!
Thanks so much! Very happy to hear you enjoyed the Douro video. And hope soon we'll be able to explore more again.
Captivating images, dialogue, and accompanying music. Top notch!
Appreciate the wonderful comment, Tom. Thank you!
Assombroso!!! Fantastic!!
Janz, I can’t wait to go Douro. Another terrific video! Merry Christmas to you and your friends!
It's a must-visit! Thank you so much for watching and enjoying the Douro video. Hope you had a stunning Christmas! ✨🍷😘🎄
Bravo!.....one of the absolute best, if not THE best, mini-doc/vlogger presentations i have ever seen, and i watch them all the time.....too many just cranking out content to keep that pocket change trickling in......not only well put together, but your voice, its tone and pace, all in support of the beauty of the whole......the fact that im thinking of moving to that region, AND just lamented that, while many portugal videos contain great beauty, i was missing the warmth i find so easily in a video of say, Mexico.....ive been torn between the two for a long-term stay......would love to paddle, float, or bike this river......gracias.....
Thanks for sharing your amazing experience in this.miraculous Douro valley, well I just would like to say the reason I strongly believe we have the best wine in the world it’s because Portugal was a nation born for Christ and didn’t our lord Jesus turned the water into the best wine when he went to the wedding of Cana? Well he did for sure and that’s why we are grateful to God for blessing not only in the Douro valley but in the entire country I ❤️ my Portugal.
In the mood for your videos. Always ❤️❤️
Thank you! Appreciate your In The Mood comment! ☺️
Excellent!
Thank you! ✨
Just discovered ur Channel looks like one of the most beautiful 😍 places I’ve ever seen hope to visit one day
Janz…, another fenomenal video!!!!…. What’s the name of the House where you stayed?…
I can’t wait to see the videos from Alentejo, and from Porto!…
Exceptional quality!!!!…👏👏👏
Muito bom documentário.
Obrigado
Muito obrigado, Rui!
Amazing video. I really appreciate your efforts, it is so helpful for me in planning my trip. I am travelling to Portugal this year, September 28th for 20 days. It will be my first trip to Europe! This video has really inspired me to spend more time in the north. I can barely wait :-)
MAGNIFIQUE VALLEY DU DOURO !!! Un de mes meilleurs voyages à l'étranger... A faire en mai-juin quand les amandiers sont en fleur.! FABULEUX
So Beautiful 💚
Merry Christmas to you guys.
Thank you! Hope you had a fantastic Christmas!
Beautiful 😊
This is top content. Feel welcome to come back!
Great video
Thank you so much!
Wow! There is Liz!
Such a wonderful video - thank you! I loved visiting Portugal a couple of years ago and am considering moving there at some point. Also, kudos to your friend that gives the food reviews. I often find vloggers struggle with food reviews. They seem at a loss for words when describing taste, often using the same couple of words over and over. She really has a talent for this - sophisticated examinations of flavour, concisely communicated. Well done! And, as always, great videography.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment! Love that quite many people here have commented about how they love Portugal, and considering of moving here. And thanks for the compliment on my friend Therese, she's exceptional. A true natural on the camera, eloquent in describing taste and flavours, and she deserves her own food show!
Love your vídeos i would love to see your life there VLOGS
Thank you so much!
Loved the video, cheers to you and to Douro Valley 🙏 I'm planning to visit there in October. When was your video filmed, in which month? Thx.
October
I’m sorry to ask… but I love your hat! Where did you get that? Thanks. Also, great video! Loved it
Appreciate your video. Not sure if anyone’s asked you, but is there a vineyard (or vineyards) in the Douro wine valley that you would recommend we visit? My wife and I plan to spend a week in Porto this summer and we’re considering spending at least one night in the Peso da Regua/Pinhão area to visit some wineries.
Fan of your videos / channel by the way. What program do you use to post process, if you don’t mind me asking. Vibrant. Your use of / eye for color is admirable. Mabuhay ka!
Janz thank you very much for all your awesome vlogs!!!
The hotel and the view is absolutely fantastic, would you tell me the name of the hotel. I would like to book a night there.
💯
This was a beautiful video. The footage was amazing, and your commentary was very nice. If I might make one suggestion, the music in the video was much louder than your voice, making it difficult to listen to. I had to keep adjusting the volume. Lower the volume of the music and that would help a ton! But really lovely.
Can you link the place where you stayed and the tour guide that you used?
Great video! Thank you for sharing and inspiring. Do you happen to have the name or contact information for the tour guide you used? Thanks!
Jana, Would you please tell me the name of the hotel / Quinta you stayed in the Douro valley? I didn’t get what you said . I love your videos . Thank you
Janz, congrats on the movie. Could you (pretty) please provide me with a contact to that house in Magrelos? I'd like to wake up to that view.
What month of year is this filmed. When are the grapes harvested. Please reply🙏🍷
Following your channel since Vienna episode .. I'm from Kerala , India . Please do come visit one day . You are my inspiration to travel and reinventing myself
Thanks a lot, appreciate it! Glad my work has inspired your soul and hopefully pursue your dreams. ✨
@@inthemoodforlife_official this reply made my day sir🙏
Please consider increasing your speaking voice volume & reducing background music as it often drowns out your lovely voice over. Great 👍 vids!
Correction, Amarante does not belong to the Minho region, it belong to the Douro Litoral region ;)
which season did you visit?
Tiny correction: Mateus Palace is not the home of the well known Mateus Rozé wine, in fact, the family of Mateus palace have their own, high quality wines being made. They don't want to have themselves connected to the 'lower quality' commerce table wine.
Hi Janz, My husband and I are traveling to Portugal in august. Originally we were planning on 4 nights in Lisbon, 3 nights in Porto, and 3 nights in Sao Miguel. After see your remarkable video, I'm thinking about trying to squeeze a portion of our trip to see the Douro Valley. Do you think 2 days will be enough time to enjoy some of the beautiful places you showed in your video? Do you have any recommendation on where to stay (hotel or airbnb)? Thanks for any suggestions
Hi Peter, thanks a lot for your message! Very happy to hear you enjoyed this Douro video, and that it inspired you to visit the Douro Valley! It's an absolute must-experience. I highly recommend contacting Sergio, who can show Douro in the best possible way: instagram.com/portugalevtours/
2 days is enough, as long as you are able to book a guided tour, as it's easier to navigate the valleys this way. Regarding stays, I recommend staying in Pinhao, as it's extremely beautiful.
Also, while you're in Lisbon, if you happen to love wines, join a Portuguese wine tasting here in Lisbon! instagram.com/salvadorsommelier/
@@inthemoodforlife_official Janz, thank you for these wonderful suggestions. Being that this will be our first time in Portugal, we are looking for all the help we can find from expert travelers as yourself. Can't wait to try some Port wine! Obrigado!
wow amazing vlog
i m planning to visit portual with my wife and 2 daughters(9 and7 years)
during the period from 26 nov to 6 dec,,
i m planning to visit douro valley and Serra da Estrela , porto and lisbon,,, i m unsure about the weather during this
period , especially the rain,,, do ur recommend me to go with this plan during this time or not??
Winter time...
Thanks for the great video footage but the music is louder than your voice, so it’s really hard to hear the narrative.
I really wanted to watch this video. But the background music was unbearable 😞
The wifey and I truly enjoy your videos and content, but find it very difficult to hear what you are saying because your background music is a bit too loud
Brilliant photography sadly the commentary was very weak and made the experience pretty bland and hardly auditable
At 10m.10s I was a bit disappointed. Flamenco is definitely not Portuguese music. It is not even from across the border to the east on the same latitude. It originates in Beautiful Andalucia, to the south of Spain. I must be picky around this subject, we are very sensitive to identity, and if you're showing a specific famous region of Portugal that must be taken into account. Also, the wine region demarcation History from the 18th-century Pombaline period is paramount to understanding the all socio-economical dynamics of the region, since it was the first regulated effort from the Kingdom to protect productions and the small farmers from speculation and greedy merchants (Sorry about that!).
Nowadays The Douro Valley is also a UNESCO Cultural heritage because the surrounding slopes are entirely human-made by generations of farmers that had but schist to begin with, and gradually were able to establish a connection of plant and soil. A Truly remarkable symbiosis of men and nature. The Regua city Douro Museum is well worth a visit and provides all information.
Northern Portugal has been inhabited for thousands of years and is quite complex in regions and sub-regions, even subclimates and culturally juxtaposed. Beautiful Amarante is close to the Douro yet well into the green wines area.

What about The Treaty of 2022 The shittiest overdubbing ever seen and heard...It's like Milli Vanilli all over again. And the LOUD violin music cutting in and out like a train wreck about to happen. Gesus production values overkill. Tone it down Persona Janz These type of CZcams videos are becoming so generic and predictable in their lack of real content and meaningful information. It definitely makes starting to read books more appealing. Mike drop.
