In the beautiful Douro Region, you will find the old Franciscan monastery that today comprises the main house of the Quinta de Marrocos estate. The estate enjoys a lovely location by the left bank of the Douro river, nestled between the snow on the Marão mountain range, the history and art of Lamego and Vila Real, the traditions and customs of the villages and towns, the nature of the Douro valley. The 17th century house is decorated with (country style) family antiques. It is one of the oldest estates in the Douro, and has maintained its own vitivinicultural activity for over 4 generations, producing famous Port and Douro wines.
We invite you to come and discover one of Portugal's treasures, the Douro, and experiment one of life's greatest pleasures - Port Wine.
The really interesting feature of this place is its traditional approach to everything they do tourism related. It will be the owner welcoming you and showing the grounds, the vineyards, teach you how to harvest and other aspects of life and wine production here. Oh and of course wine, cheese and dairy products will be tasted!
