Plan your visit to the restaurant Terraçu's

The Quinta Nova team invites you to come aboard the charming Senhora do Carmo boat to explore the splendid Douro region, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. During this beautiful escape along the peaceful waters of the Douro, discover the magnificent landscapes of vineyards carved into terraces. To enhance the cruise, you are invited to awaken your taste buds by tasting regional specialties accompanied by a fine selection of wines. Cast off and gently float into the heart of the enchanted valley. We organize the transfer to and from the port of embarkation.

River and wine cruise on the Douro

Accompanied by members of the Quinta Nova team, travel through the sumptuous Douro region known for its predominantly intense and tannic wines, its landscapes with schistose slopes, and its villages perched on the mountains. They will guide you on this getaway that will allow you to visit a winery as well as the Fernanda Ramos Amorim wine museum. This pleasurable experience ends at Terraçu's Winery restaurant, where you can enjoy a lunch with a wine and food pairing created in close collaboration with a winemaker.

Wine tour

The wine experts at Quinta Nova invite you to a private tour of a winery located near the property. More than just a simple wine tasting, you'll participate in a unique moment. Like a winemaker, compose your own blend and create a wine perfectly suited to your taste. As a bonus, you get a bottle with a personalized label. At the end of this vintage workshop, you'll have the opportunity to visit a museum dedicated to wine. A lunch at Terraçu's Restaurant, where food and wine join in harmony, will provide the perfect finishing touch.

Create your own cuvée

We believe that creating wine and food is also about creating unique moments. Discover our restaurant Terraçu's Winery Restaurant and you will see that you have found a true slice of paradise in Douro Valley.
