Highly recommended

Our vineyard and wine tasting tour in Portugal was an unforgettable experience. Guided personally by Beat, we were amazed by the sheer variety of fruits on the land and the meticulous care poured into every aspect of the vineyard.

This retirement project has clearly become a labor of love, resulting in wines that are nothing short of spectacular. Every sip reflected the dedication and attention to detail that define their process.

Beyond the wine, the owner’s passion and vision gave us hope for the future, showing how great things can flourish with care and commitment. It’s more than a wine tour—it’s an inspiring story. Highly recommend!

Quinta Dos Sentidos - Fantastic

Rate: 5 out of 5 10/1/24
One of best vineyard tours I’ve ever been on, and the others in our small group (4) agreed wholeheartedly.

The passion and knowledge of our hosts was infectious and the beauty of the olive groves, orchards, and of course the vineyard sections within the setting of the Algarve hills was spectacular.

Finishing off with the tastings of the high quality products from the Quinta: both the wines and the olive oils, made for a great afternoon treat that was of the top highlights of our entire trip to Portugal.

As a person rarely writes reviews, and is stingy with 5/5 scores, I can easily recommend this experience.

We had a lovely experience at Quinta dos Sentidos! We were welcomed by the owner Beat Buchmann who explained to us his passion for wine making but also olive oil and harvesting fruits. He took the time to explain to us how his vineyard started and where each plantation was. The views are absolutely beautiful with a beautiful pond in the centre of the land and a nice flower garden. The wines were each explained very well and were delicious. We each left with olive oil, wine and honey that is also produced by Quinta dos Sentidos! We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Silves looking for a fun experience.

We pre-booked our wine and olive tasting experience at Quinta dos Sentidos and having been met on arrival by our polite, friendly and extremely knowledgeable host, were given a tour of the vineyards and grounds along with the history, ethos of the company and information about the different grapes, olives and flora and fauna. We then moved inside to taste the various wines and olive oils - all were wonderful. We also met the owners and enjoyed talking about their experiences with building and developing the vineyards.
All in all it was a fantastic experience with genuine, friendly and knowledgeable hosts - I would definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area.

We were looking for a unique wine tasting experience for our holiday and we just found it. Quinta Dos Sentidos is a magical place where you can enjoy the view and the sounds of nature. Unique fruit plants, some known for the first time, rows of vines treated with passion that gave rise to a truly interesting wine offer. We finished our tour with a tasting of white and red wines and locally produced oil. A fantastic experience that I recommend to everyone!

About Winery and Wines

Quinta dos Sentidos, a wine and olive oil estate, is nestled in the rolling hills of Portugal's southernmost province, the Algarve, just a 45-minute drive from Faro Airport and 10 km from the ocean. The estate is surrounded by orange groves, providing an exotic and fragrant backdrop to the daily workings of the farm.

Almost two decades ago, a plot of land in the Algarve captured the hearts of those who envisioned how it might alter the course of their lives. Today, Quinta dos Sentidos stands as a testament to that vision, producing wines, olive oils, verjus, and honey, with each batch and vintage reflecting a deep passion for the land and its bounty. These products are living proof that following one's dreams can lead to extraordinary outcomes.

As a boutique, family-run estate, Quinta dos Sentidos offers guided tours and private tastings, exclusive to each party and hosted by the owners or the resident oenologist. Visitors are invited to reconnect with nature through a guided tour of the vineyards, winery, and gardens, uncovering the secrets of winemaking, as well as olive oil and verjus production. Experience the essence of Quinta dos Sentidos wines and other produce right at their place of origin.

Set on gently south- and southwest-sloping grounds, the vineyards at Quinta dos Sentidos enjoy the ideal combination of ample sunshine and a cooling oceanic breeze. These conditions are perfectly suited for the estate's grape varieties: Touriga Nacional, Aragonez, Tinta Caiada, and Syrah for reds, and Arinto and Antão Vaz for whites. These grapes enable the production of both blended and single-variety wines. The estate’s commitment to quality is evident in the strict yield reduction, meticulous hand selection of grapes, artisanal winemaking, and aging in French and American oak barrels, resulting in exceptional red, white, rosé, and red late-harvest wines.

The estate's diverse olive varieties are used to create both single-variety and blended extra virgin olive oils. Additionally, six bee populations, thriving on the surrounding citrus groves and flowering trees and shrubs, produce pure, natural honey, further showcasing the richness and biodiversity of Quinta dos Sentidos.
