Guided Tours
Accompanied by one of our port educators, a guided tour is the best way to explore and learn about the quinta, its history, and the wines we make.
Merenda na Vinha
Treat yourself to a picnic on our terrace overlooking the river filled with delicious Douro dishes, all served alongside a bottle of Altano Branco and a glass of Dow’s port.
Vineyard walks
Get in amongst the vines and gain a real sense of where our wines come from. We will give you a hat, map, and a bottle of water for the walk (+2€ for a glass of DOC Douro Altano white).
Restaurants
Enjoy authentic Douro cuisine curated by Michelin-starred chef, Pedro Lemos, at the riverside Bomfim 1896 and, set on a ridge among the vineyards, Casa dos Ecos.
The vineyards are where everything begins – the birthplace of our wines. Overlooking the Douro River and tended to all year round, you can get a closer look by choosing one of our Vineyard Walks.
Visit us at the right time (typically September to early October) and you’ll experience the hustle and bustle of a grape harvest first-hand. All grapes are handpicked before being received at our onsite winery.
Visits include a trip to see our specially-developed, modern lagares. Designed in-house to mimic foot-treading, these are instrumental in our ability to consistently produce outstanding wines.
Built in 1896, the old Bomfim lodge is one of the most remarkable buildings in the Douro region. Our youngest wines are stored here in vats and barrels as they wait their turn to head downriver to Gaia.
