It's a trip you will never forget Our wine and tasting tour was amazing and the wines are of first class. The gardens at the Quinta are very beautiful and very peaceful. We had a wonderful day and couldn't stop talking about it with our friends over one of the bottles of wines we purchased at Quinta Do Sanguinhal . Our tour guide was truly amazing. She was very knowledgeable and friendly and made our experience unforgettable. We truly give her a rating of more than 10. Our experience with Winetourism.com was also very good.

I can only say that your arrangements for the tour of Quinta de Santa Cristina was excellent. My wife and I very much enjoyed the time we spent at the winery. The tour guide was very, very good and was fully up to date on his subject. We had a full tour which included a walk around the wine groves. It also included a full tour of the production facilities, including the bottling plant. We sampled several differing wine types and had a light lunch with the sampling. In the end, was purchased 21 bottles of wine. We would give the whole experience 10/10. We like to visit wineries and will be asking you again for suitable…

The wine tasting went very well The wine tasting went very well. Rita gave us a nice tour through the vineyard and we tasted 2 wonderful wines. A general remark for the wine tours we have done, is that most of them are oriented towards tourism and not an answer to our needs. We are wine connoisseurs looking for import possibilities. As such we want to understand the full pallet of what a producer has to offer.
