A highly recommended visit to this winery. Thanks to Hugo, a spectacular host, we learned much more about the Alvarinho production process and thanks to the tasting and his explanations, we got to know the different varieties of the wine, some of which were surprisingly exquisite. Thank you!!!!!

We had such a great experience at Quintas de Melgaço! Maria was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much fun. We did the Four Tastes package paired with a board of local products (items like cheese, compote, and honey) and everything was amazing!! Quintas de Melgaço is a must visit.

We visited and tasted with Mrs. Felipa, she was very professional, friendly and demonstrated great knowledge and passion for the wines of the Property and region! The visit was very well explained and didactic and the tasting was very good, highlighting the excellent sparkling wines, different and unique, and her Vinhas Velhas de Alvarinho, a delight, a wine with good aging capacity!

Fantastic Quinta for group visits. We arranged a visit, where they told us the history of the winery and we asked to taste their best wines and brut. Ideal for groups. Ample parking, and above all spectacular service. Note: 10
