We were very kindly welcomed by a guild who spoke Portuguese, English and a little French. She knows the products of the house very well, I recommend her (Ignè) was our host.

Excellent visit, guide by Luís Filipe! It shows an enormous influence on the region of God, and the greenhouses influence the wine production of the area, and in this way this geographical factor contributes to giving personality to the wines of God and Caminhos Cruzados. Interesting in how the community joins together for the production of its wines, reflecting a question of these people, which is wine and wine production. A scheduled visit of 1 hour which lasts up to 2 hours, very familiar with the way Luis dresses in the shirt of the house. We can hope to continue the success of this project and hope to meet again soon. Cumprimentos do Oeste!

Excellent tour guiado pelo Luís, detentor de um notável conhecimento sobre a história da empresa e region. Que aula tivemos nessa experiência. A quality of the wines, a taste, a history and details of this explicação enriqueceram ainda mais a visita. Great satisfaction and a consultation in the same region. A equipe está de parabens.

Visit 26.07.2024 As we resell the Titular range in Belgium, we were very eager to see where the product finds its origin. We were not disappointed. We got a tour around the estate, where a very friendly guide Inês informed us about the winery, the grapes and the process. Afterwards we enjoyed a wonderful lunch with perfect winepairing. Caminhos Cruzados only serves one group at a time in an open kitchen, so we were in close contact with chef Miguel who presented us with very fine cooking in an homelike atmosphere. The chef and guide made us and our kids (one year and five year) feel very welcome. We would like to thank CC, Inês and Miguel for their hospitality and the enjoyable afternoon!
