A Day at the Grower's Table in the Douro
Meet the people who grow it.
I'll introduce you to a family whose story in Douro wine spans six generations. We'll visit the estate and historic house together, hearing the stories of those who carry this place forward. Then we'll sit down to lunch with the owners, over wines they produce and take to countries around the world. Between the tasting and the conversation, I want to leave time for you to meet the people behind each wine and enjoy the welcome of a shared table.
The afternoon light.
In the afternoon, I'll take you to a viewpoint above Pinhão, in the heart of the Douro. I want to leave time for you to follow the river's curves between the vine-covered slopes while enjoying a glass of Port. Then I'll accompany you on a boat trip of approximately one hour. From the water, we'll discover another perspective on the estates and terraces, at the river's quiet pace. This is how I want to end the day with you: with time to look, talk, and let the landscape become a memory before I take you back.
A private experience for 2-6 participants. I'll agree pickup and return in Porto or the Douro region and share the route and timings before we meet. I'll leave room to enjoy a view or continue a conversation within the programme we agree.
