Overview

This is a truly unique experience — an all-inclusive private journey from Lisbon into the hidden Alentejo, where a family keeps ancient Roman wine traditions alive.

Step beyond the usual wine tours where wine is still made using methods that date back to Roman times.

Explore cultural stops linked to the Roman roots of the region, including the Roman ruins of São Cucufate in Vila de Frades and the Talha Wine Interpretation Centre. These visits set the scene for understanding one of Portugal’s most authentic and little-known wine traditions.

The afternoon unfolds slowly at a family-run winery, where wine, food and stories are shared in the true rhythm of Alentejo life.

Enjoy a traditional Alentejo lunch, taste local wines, discover ancient clay-vessel winemaking, and experience the warmth of a family business that has kept this tradition alive through generations.

Enjoy a peaceful stop by this hidden river beach surrounded by nature.
