An excellent experience. My family and I began with a tour of the Quinta Nova museum and winery, through which we were guided by our friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable tour guide. It was very interesting to learn about their production process as well as the history behind both Quinta Nova and the Douro Valley itself. We then proceeded to the wine tasting, and, as to be expected, all the wines were delicious. We particularly enjoyed their Port, which originated in the Douro Valley vineyards. Our lunch at Restaurante Terraçu's was fabulous and undoubtedly my favorite part. The food was Michelin-quality, and all servers and other staff, from young to old, were kind and accommodating. We had the opportunity to experience many more of Quinta Nova’s exquisite wines during this time as well. We ended our day with a lovely boat tour. The tour company associated with Quinta Nova was excellent. My family and I were fortunate in that we had a large, shaded motorboat to ourselves, with our own personal guide named Telmo. Telmo was filled with interesting information and insights regarding the Douro Valley, educating us about crop cultivation and management methods in the area, and delving into the economic and political landscape of the valley and its farms/vineyards as well. Our overall experience was enhanced by the beautiful architecture of the Quinta Nova facilities. The exteriors of all the buildings are preserved from the 18th century with contemporary, tasteful, and climate-controlled interiors. There was a small chapel that was preserved where people could go for prayer, which we loved. Of course, the scenery and geography of the Douro Valley is breathtaking, and Quinta Nova is well situated to fully capture this beauty, particularly due to its height on the mountains, excellent view of the river, and beautifully cultivated, surrounding vineyards under its care. I highly recommend Quinta Nova and the magnificent experience that they provide.
