Vinho Verde tasting, a tour of the winery and accommodation amongst the vineyards in Guimarães — about 50 minutes from Porto.

Just outside Porto, off the beaten track

A Vinho Verde getaway in the heart of Minho

Quinta Picouto de Cima is a family-run Vinho Verde estate in Gominhães, Guimarães, about a 50-minute drive from Porto and about 30 minutes from Braga. It's the ideal destination for those looking for authentic wine tourism in a single day—or for a weekend getaway among vineyards.

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 your visit with a trip to the historic centre of Guimarães — the cradle of Portugal and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — just a few minutes’ drive from the estate.
