The famous fortified wine, Port, takes its name from the city of Oporto, located at the mouth of the Douro River. Its fame is attributed to the need of English traders, at the time at war with the French, to find an alternative to the wines of their wartime rivals. Therefore they began intense trade relations to procure this sweet wine, reinforced with aquavit.
