Welcome to Wine Making!
Have you considered starting with a prepared Kit? I have made six batches using WinExpert Kits, which include the Grape Juice and everything else besides hardware equipment. And wine from these kits all turned out very well for me.

Here is a link to a dealer that ships WinExpert kits from the United Kingdom:

From this dealer the shipping cost should be rather low for you. Good Luck starting to make your own wine!
 
Welcome to WMT, gonçalo. Enjoy the forum. Keep us posted with your projects?
 
Starting with kits can teach a lot about making wine if you haven't made it before

wine kits no not really they arent available in portugal and for me part of the fun is taking care of the vineyard and watch it grow my grapes.
