Interesting and fun afternoon

Rate: 5 out of 5 9/1/24
We had a great time touring the winery with our guide Nuno. He is very knowledgeable about the process of wine making and the history of the winery, and has excellent English.
We arrived at the right time of year because we got to see the grapes arriving and being processed, but we also got to see the bountiful grapes on the vine, and lots of other fruits in the well maintained gardens.
The tasting at the end was a generously pleasant way to round off our visit.

Tasting & Tour @ Quinta Dos Avidagos- Knowledgable, Friendly and Fun

Rate: 5 out of 5 5/1/23
We booked the day before and arrived on time for our tasting appointment. We were given a short tour around this traditional Quinta that dates back to the beginning of winemaking in the Douro region, with our guide explaining the production process, from picking through to bottling, and the differences between the various varietals they used and the different types of wine they produce. Our guide was knowledgable and friendly, and he answered all our questions. After the tour we went into their very nice tasting room which had great views over the vines. The tasting went through six wines and included two whites, two rosés and two reds. The prices seemed reasonable and we bought a couple of bottles to bring home. Very enjoyable visit!

Originally selling grapes to Port Wine houses, the family began producing their own wines in 1996. A state-of-the-art winery was built in 1999, combining modern techniques with tradition. Their dedication to quality, respect for heritage, and unique terroir make Quinta dos Avidagos an exceptional destination for wine lovers visiting the Douro Valley.

Quinta dos Avidagos produces a diverse range of high-quality wines, including whites, reds, rosés, and Port Wine. The wines reflect the distinct character of the Douro region, using native grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz for reds, and Gouveio, Rabigato, and Arinto for whites.
