Portugal is home to the oldest demarcated wine region in the world: Douro. And today, wine production continues across the country, dating back to the Phoenician times. Many grapes are still handpicked and trodden by foot in the granite lagares (low troughs). Visiting a Portuguese Quinta marks for a special experience and one you will remember for a lifetime. Private winery tours of the estate, vineyards and barrel rooms are made with wine specialists. Enjoy gourmet lunches with wine pairing and special winery experiences, such as winemaker for a day and vineyard picnic with wine commentary.
