One of the views with the most fantastic view of the Douro. Visiting the baron's house we observed the oratory vineyard that will remain in our memory forever. It was great to observe and get to know the region with the best Portuguese wines.

This was an absolutely wonderful tour of the winery. The grounds are beautiful. Orlando was the perfect host and tour guide - he was knowledgeable, engaging and gave everyone in our group of 8 a better understanding of the vineyard and grape varieties. It was also refreshing to see how organic based everything is at this winery. A highlight of our Portugal trip.

Visited Quinta de Covela with our group of 8 during an unusually rainy week. The visit was fantastic in every way. A truly beautiful location tucked into the lower end of a valley, and it was so interesting to hear about their efforts toward more sustainable & biodiverse farming methods. Orlando (our guide) was outstanding, as he walked us around the Quinta & took the time to answer any scattered question we could think of. The rain chased our tasting inside (rather than out on the terrace,) but we still had such a fun time testing out different varieties & learning about what creates the unique flavors in each of them. Just a great visit all around.

Amazing place, like an enchanted garden/ place. Orlando was great very knowledgeable, kind, and personable. If you are visiting Portugal, you have to visit because the wine is exceptional, so make sure you leave with a few bottles nothing like you ever tasted. Lisa T U.S.A
