At Quinta de Louredo in the Douro Valley, Fabio and his family welcome you for organic vinho verde, olive oil and local snacks, a farm walk, ingredient picking, and a hands-on Portuguese cooking class.

“We had the best day with Alfredo at his beautiful farm! He had an incredible spread of fresh cheese, fruit, jams, bread, and olives waiting for us on arrival, most of which was from his farm. The farm itself was so lovely, and we got to meet all of the resident animals and walk through the orchard and vineyards while enjoying some of Alfredo’s wine. After the tour, we cooked a delicious lunch and sat around the table all together. It was my kids favorite day of our entire trip. Highly recommend.”
