As soon as we start, let's look at the wine in mind (Quinta), but as our group is addicted to wine, we can't stop tasting some of the wines. That's when we decided to do a tour with a company that took us to Quinta da Avassada. And what a grateful surprise! Let's love Quinta da Avassada! A very clear place that surpasses our expectations, engaging in an enriching experience with a tour that explains the wine production process and local history. A Quinta da Avassada is a family property with a long history of Douro wine production. Our guide was very kind and explained everything very well, the tasting was incrível and the food was a delight and with the direction of the fado, typical Portuguese music. Recommendation!
