Highlights

This is an intimate Douro Valley experience at a small, family-run organic vineyard, not a commercial winery visit or standard restaurant lunch. Guests walk through the estate vineyards, learn how organic wine is produced directly from the people who make it, and taste small-production wines that reflect the character of the land. Lunch is a traditional home-style Portuguese meal prepared with seasonal ingredients, many from the estate itself. Each of the four food moments is paired with an estate wine, including three dry wines and one Port. A genuine experience of real Douro wine, local food, and Portuguese hospitality, shared around the table at Quinta dos Novais.

About Peso da Régua

Peso da Régua is a river town in Portugal's Douro Valley, at the centre of the port wine country, with terraced vineyards, a railway and river boats.

Peso da Régua lies on the north bank of the Douro river in northern Portugal, in the heart of a wine region of steep terraced vineyards that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. For centuries it was the place where the wine of the upper Douro was gathered before it went downriver to Porto, and a museum on the riverfront tells the story of the region's wine.
