Itinerary
In Criação Velha, we cannot only witness the special characteristics and beauty of Pico’s wine landscape, but also understand how much work it involved to create it. Not only the vineyards are part of the patrimony, but also the typical adegas (wine cellars). Let’s discover one of these apparently abandoned places and taste the local wine next to the ocean.
On a short guided tour through the installations, we will learn more about the wine making process. Having background information and knowing the “adega” where the wine is produced, the wine we will drink there tastes even more delicious.
On the way, we will pass the former wine production places Cachorro and Lajido, discovering other features that can be referred to the golden wine age that lasted over 200 years, such as little ports, tidal wells, distilleries and much more.

About Pico
Pico is an island in the Azores dominated by Mount Pico, Portugal's highest mountain, with black-lava vineyards, whale-watching coasts and lava caves.
Pico, in the central group of the Azores in the mid-Atlantic, is shaped like a long ridge topped by a volcanic cone, Mount Pico, which at 2,351 metres is the highest point in Portugal. The island's black basalt coast is cut with natural pools and small harbours, and the main towns are Madalena, São Roque do Pico and Lajes do Pico. The cone is often wreathed in cloud.
