Vinho Verde where Portugal began

Quinta Picouto de Cima is located in Gominhães, a parish in the municipality of Guimarães, about a 10-minute drive from the historic centre — a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is the closest vineyard to those who are visiting the city.

Here, the tasting is not at an anonymous counter: it is the family itself, which produces each bottle, showing the winery and telling the story of three generations dedicated to the only wine in the world that is called "green".

Combine the visit with the historic centre of Guimarães — the birthplace of Portugal and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
