Located on the north border area of Portimão and Alvor. With the big mountain of Monchique, that dominates the view when we are at the vineyards, this large property has also growing areas of cork trees, wheat fields and orange trees. In the family since 1865 and producers of grapes from a long time, this farm built their modern winery in 1999 and were the first producing certified designation of origin wines in the Algarve.

This was a very interesting tour. Fabio had a great knowledge and enthusiasm about the wine and the vineyards. Tasted the premium and none premium wines which were nice to compare. Would recommend as part of your holiday.

Our guide was great! Very knowledgeable and informative. We’ve been on many wine tours and never has there not been crackers or pretzels to accompany the tastings. It is irresponsible to just serve people alcohol! Guests need to been informed to bring nuts, crackers or bread. I felt ill after our first tasting and after asking, our tour guide was able to get us a few crackers at the second winery.

Wonderful experience. I love wine but I knew nothing about the process and how and why certain wines look and taste the way they do. Fabio is an excellent educator!

HappyDaysMama

Absolutely wonderful experience. Not only was it informative, it was great fun! Beautiful wines, with excellent explanations about the entire process from grape selections, growing and harvesting the vines and of course the magic of making the wines. Highly recommended.
