Overview

Red, white, green, rosé, muscatel, champagne: wine, that is nothing more than an alcoholic drink that is formed from the juice of fermented grapes, has a major role in the life of the portuguese people.
Vineyard cultivation in Portugal is first attributed to the Tartessus tribe, a people that inhabited the Iberian Peninsula around 2000 a.C and that maintained comercial relation with eastern and southern mediterranean peoples. However, archaeological traces suggest that wine was already known long before. The diversity of the portuguese wines started with the introduction of new varieties, brought by the phoenicians, greeks and celts. Later, during the Roman Empire, the wine industry grew and suffered a huge modernization process: new species spread and cultivation and production techniques were perfected. The wine’s cultural weight was already so much that not even the long centuries of muslim occupation were enough to diminish its importance.

What to expect

We invite you to know more about portuguese wine. We’d like you to have a grasp of Algarve’s wine with a tour of a vineyard and a wine house of a family tradition.
Visit to the vineyard
Our journey starts with a visit to the vineyards of the villa where we’re gonna enjoy our day. Here we’re gonna learn more about Algarve’s vineyards, its cultivation process and maintenance of the different varieties.
Visit to the wine house
Surrounded by the rich scent of the juices and of the wooden swollen casks, filled with aging wine, in the wine house, among the tanks and the prenses, we’ll understand better the ancient art of transforming grapes into wine.
Wine savouring
We end our morning by the pool, to refresh ourselves with a local wine before lunch. A small glimpse of what’s coming in the afternoon.
Lunch
Wine Tasting
We return to the villa , already satiated, so that we can devote ourselves to the wine tasting. Again by the pool, enjoying a wonderful view of the mountains and of the village of Tor, you can relax while you appreciate and savour the wines specially selected for you.
