Pinhão – Quinta de la Rosa

Quinta de la Rosa is within walking distance of the centre of Pinhão although taxis are available from outside the railway station. This may well be a better option if you are staying at the Quinta and have luggage.

Pinhão from Quints de la Rosa

Quinta de la Rosa offers the full package. Not only does it produce port, table wines and olive oil but it can also offer accommodation and, since 2017, a restaurant. The accommodation here is very comfortable as we can attest from our stay in the region a couple of years ago.

Tours of the property are available  at 11.30, 14.30 and 17.00 and last for around an hour, finishing with short tasting. It is always advisable to pre book to ensure that places are available on a given day. You can read about visits on their website

In the still air of early morning some super refections can be seen in the still water of the river.

Finest Reserve Port. Ruby in colour, youthful. Berry fruit with hints of caramel. The palate is silky, fruit is complemented by hints of coffee. A nicely made style of port which is very approachable, not overly sweet and may well suit those new to drinking port.
