Brilliant Afternoon - Had a great tour of the premises with Mario who
was very friendly and informative .We tasted
Lacrau Old Vines ,Secret Spot White the Garrafeira Red Cellar and a few more .It was fun,entertaining and really worth a visit.
We had the Guys from Grapeland driving us in a 4 wheel drive vehicle which meant we could take short cuts over the mountains .
I cannot wait for my next visit.

Fantastic tour and excellent wines - We booked the tour of the Quinta with a full flight of tasting of 6 wines. The guide spoke excellent English and was very helpful and knowledgeable and really made our visit worthwhile. The wines at the end of the tour were also fantastic and it was really interesting to taste them all and compare. Overall, I'd highly recommend this visit to anyone interested in some of the best douro unfortified still wines.
