Trusted by wine lovers around the world

I had a brilliant time at this wine tasting. The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, guiding us through each pour with clear, engaging detail. The food was thoughtfully prepared and paired beautifully with the wines, and the Prosecco lineup was excellent from start to finish. All in all, a very, very good experience—I’d happily come back.

We booked a "Wine Tasting & Regional Meal at Quinta de Santa Cristina" package. To start with the good - After the lunch we went to the winery and had an AMAZING time, it did not disappoint. I wish that we had booked only the wine tasting, I even would have paid the same price to not have the local lunch. The information that our guide Sofia gave us was very in depth and she explained it so well and made us feel very welcome as she explained about the processes, the different grapes and the history of the wineyard and the family. The tasting itself was fantastic and we were given a small charcuterie board which was already much better than the local lunch. We tried 4 wines which were delicious, and we did not feel pressured to buy any wines directly. It was around a 1 hour drive from where we were staying in Braga and easy to navigate to as well as to park. If the review was only for the winery I would have given it 5 stars. The less good - The pre-booking was quite confusing as it was advertised as 3 hours, however the timings of the local lunch were not well factored into this, and in fact our lunch was at 1pm with the tasting from 3pm onwards. The local lunch was quite disappointing, from arriving at the restaurant we already felt we were an inconvience to the staff at the restaurant, and the food was not to our taste. We wanted to try the more local specialities but were disappointed with both the starter and the main, the octopus was quite mushy as if it had been frozen and quickly defrosted and the dessert as well of chocolate mousse was not good.
