Reaching a real Douro wine estate without a car is harder than it looks. The quintas sit across steep terraces several kilometres from Pinhão, on roads with no buses and nowhere to walk. This experience solves that: we collect you at Pinhão station, take you to Quinta da Levandeira do Roncão, and bring you back. The Levandeira is a working family estate in the heart of the Alto Douro — a small property where wine is still made, not a visitor centre. You see the estate and its setting above the valley, then sit down in the tasting room. The tasting is a vertical of three Ports: a White, a 10 Year Old Tawny and a Late Bottled Vintage, served with a board of regional cheese, cured meats and bread from the Douro and Trás-os-Montes. Your host knows the estate and the wines, and there is no script and no queue behind you. One departure a day, at 11am, with a maximum of four guests. A viewpoint stop over the valley on the way back.
ão, a working family estate in the Alto Douro. Your guide collects you at Pinhão railway station and drives you up into the terraced hills to the estate. There you see the property and its setting above the valley before sitting down in the tasting room. The tasting is a vertical of three Port wines — a White Port, a 10 Year Old Tawny and a Late Bottled Vintage — poured and explained one by one, so you can compare three styles and three approaches to ageing. They are served with a board of regional cheese, cured meats and bread from the Douro and Trás-os-Montes. On the way back you stop at a viewpoint over the terraced valley for photographs, before being dropped off at your starting point in Pinhão. The group is limited to four guests and there is one departure a day, at 11am.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
