In the heart of the Douro Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Quinta Nova Winery House overlooks terraced vineyards and the river below. On this 300-acre, family-run estate, the property produces its own Port and Douro wines in perfect harmony with the landscape. In this sympathetically restored 18th-century mansion, the rooms boast contemporary, elegant decor, conducive to relaxation. The warm and intimate atmosphere immerses guests in the gentle pace of Portuguese life in a truly inspiring setting. In the kitchen, Chef André Carvalho showcases local produce with a contemporary interpretation of regional culinary classics. Quinta Nova Winery House also boasts a private villa in the Dão region, about 75 miles away: this offers a chance to discover ‘Portugal’s Burgundy,’ one of the country's oldest wine-growing regions, set amid the mountains.

River and wine cruise on the Douro

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.

Wine tour

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.

Create your own cuvée

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.
