"My parents and I booked a tour and a tasting and we had the chance to be alone with Teresa. She is very passionate about the winery and we learned a lot and we loved it! The winery is beautiful and we tasted great wines and food (I recommend taking the premium tasting as it is very little more than the normal one and it’s totally worth it).
We ended up taking 3 bottles home because the wine is that good.
Teresa is a very interesting woman and made the experience cozy and delightful. She spoke in English to us, but also Portuguese with my father, who was sooo happy to practice his Portuguese.
Overall a very positive and happy experience and I recommend it to anyone!"

"This was the last stop on our wine tasting tour, and was an excellent way to end the day. The wine was spectacular (especially the white and the fortified). We took home a case. This winery is a hidden gem, and probably the best value in Portugal."
