    • Every year in September, one can see how the Douro Valley changes from its summer greens to a blanket of gold and eventually red. This is the perfect time to enjoy the late summer days in the valley. A celebratory ceremony, the grape harvest, is where workers and villagers gather in a festive spirit but also a time of the year when everyone is busy and working hard on the vine terraces in the Quintas.
    • During this harvest experience, you will work with the works and get scissors and a bucket to pick the grapes. And that is it; this is the tool that you have and a hat for the sun. It’s like going to the gym and working your muscles.
    • By the end of the day, sometimes, you will also tread the grapes with your feet and leave your footprint in the wine, either port or DOC wine.
    • During this wine adventure, you will walk among the vineyards that grow on break-neck slopes, enjoy the breathtaking views, learn about the winemaking process, taste wines, and appreciate typical flavours.
