A superb visit to Quinta da Furada
Seeing that we spoke French, he offered several times to give us the tour in French rather than English, even though the French tour was not originally offered.
Once the tour of the estate was over, we were able to taste his own production of wines as well as ports, olive oil, olives and even honey. We were lucky enough to taste many more wines and ports than what was noted in the booking description. All the products were delicious. Moreover, for novices like us, good explanations were provided during the tasting, to better understand the specificities of the different wines and ports.
The visit was a real moment of pleasure and we found someone very open to discussion, very friendly and passionate.
We highly recommend a visit to this magnificent Quinta.
To get there, you have to trust Google's GPS which takes you past Quinta do Pessegueiro. You then have to continue on a dirt and gravel road until you reach a red gate that will be opened for you to access the estate.
Although we usually prefer red port, we particularly recommend the white port. The olive oil is also particularly good.
