As part of its continued development as a place to experience, Quinta do Fôjo has developed its capabilities to host wine tastings; whilst we grow our own grapes, we presently contract out our wine-making to local winemakers we have chosen to work with to create wines that translate the spirit of the Douro. The wine tastings are presented by Elisabete Saraiva who continues to develop her place in the world of wine, including her contacts with London as an international window on the world of wine and the study of the world-renowned Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) qualifications.
The wine tastings are presented with examples of food pairings and, indeed, we also offer a tasting of our home produced olive oil.
Whilst the wine tastings are often organised together with local businesses we can consider smaller groups of people - we may be able to host a smaller group of four to six people or otherwise invite you to join another party visiting our vineyard. We offer hosting covering Portuguese, Spanish, English and French speakers.
