Slice of heaven!

I was part of a large group tour and lunch in April, 2026 and just wow! What an amazing property and business! This family must be so proud of the extensive history and beauty, not to mention the exceptional wine! I can’t wait to receive the case I ordered. The tour was breathtaking and informative. We couldn’t have been more pleased. Would love to make another trip during the September season. Can I move in?!

Our family and the entire team pour our hearts into preserving this piece of heaven, so knowing that your group tour and lunch left you with such fond memories means the world to us. Your case of wine is on its way, and we hope that every bottle you open brings back a little bit of the sunshine and magic from that beautiful April day. As for moving into the Douro, you actually don't have to look very far! For your next trip, you can experience living right here on the property. We have a beautiful, fully independent two-bedroom cottage with a private swimming pool nestled right in the heart of our vineyards. It is the perfect peaceful retreat for anyone wanting to wake up surrounded by our history and spectacular views, making it feel like your very own home away from home. We would absolutely love to welcome you back for the vibrant September harvest season so you can enjoy the cottage and the estate at another magical time of year.
