Lack of transparency regarding pricing and presentation
During a trip to Lisbon, I purchased a bottle of Port wine at Bar do Binho, in a tourist context following a tasting.
The product was presented as a special Port, distinct from the standard commercial version, with explanations suggesting a particular exclusivity or added value. Based on this presentation, a bottle was sold for 85 €.
After the trip, I did some research and discovered that this Port corresponds to a clearly identifiable commercial product, widely available elsewhere at a much lower price. I contacted the merchant to request an objective explanation or a possible solution.
Despite several courteous exchanges, no verifiable justification was provided and no reasonable solution was offered. The final response from the merchant was closed and dismissive.
This review is not about the taste or quality of the product, but about a lack of transparency in how the product was presented and priced, particularly in a tourist setting.
