Identity Tasting | Quinta De Santa Cristina Vinho Verde

We had an absolutely wonderful visit. From the warm welcome to the amazing tour guided by Sofia, everything was exceptional. Sofia was lovely, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience even more special. We tasted some amazing wines and, of course, couldn’t resist bringing a couple of bottles home! We were also treated to some delicious snacks, including an incredible orange jelly, which we loved so much that we brought some home with us too. A truly memorable experience, full of wonderful flavours, hospitality, and charm. We highly recommend a visit and will definitely be back!

Norma was a great guide. The wine was delicious and the tour very interesting.

We had a great experience on our tour & tasting at Quinta de Santa Cristina. Sophia, our lovely host was exceptional knowledgeable about the wines and the region, with some humour. Nibbles with the tasting was a great touch. 👏

This was the best wine tour that I have ever been on, Norma was an excellent guide and we asked lots of questions which she was happy to answer and we felt very welcome and appreciated her time and knowledge.The winery is very interesting and in such a beautiful location. The food provided was superb and very high quality and the wine was delicious, such a beautiful tasting venue with wonderful views across the mountains and valley.We all had a great time and can highly recommend, thank you

A very pleasant experience, with perfect service and attention from the staff at Quinta de Santa Cristina. I highly recommend it.

The hostess was amazing, very knowledgeable and detailed, we tried 3 different wines and some charcuteries and everything was an amazing experience, we bought many bottles and we love their wines!!

The tour guide, Norma, was knowledgeable about the vineyards, wines, and culture of the family run winery. She was very enthusiastic and I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in wines and winemaking.

We were 3 generations visiting this lovely vineyard. We had an amazing time, very informative, great views and overall a really nice experience. We especially appreciated the "juice tasting" for our kids aged 9 and 10, which allowed the adults to relax and enjoy their experience as well. We would very much recommend the tasting experience.

The tour over the estate and the winery was amazing. We learned a lot. The wine tasting was delicious. Absolutely recommended!

Better than we could have imagined. Me and my wife wanted to get away from Porto's city life and found this place. It was an hour drive and was the perfect experience. Our guide Norma was great - very nice and friendly and informative. The information was all interesting but not too in-depth where it would have turned boring. We walked around with her for about 30 minutes and then went straight to the tasting. 3 different wines, a delicious meat and cheese board, along with incredible views. Everything was perfect and we were done in under 2 hours without feeling rushed at all. She even said when we completed the tasting to take our time leaving. The $ value for the experience was also incredible. I would recommend this to anyone in the area. P.S. After the tasting, me and my wife drove to Santuário de Nossa Senhora da Graça, which is a church on the top of a huge mountain we could see from the winery. The drive was about 25 minutes and the views were unbelievable. Perfect way to end the day and I'd recommend that to anyone as well.

Best than many French wine producer visits. Sofias was the best guide for this wine tour ! Interesting and very complete comments during the visits, beautiful place and very good wines.

Beautiful views. Great facility. Staff was friendly, professional, well educated and informative. Lovely experience.

Wonderful experience with wonderful wines. We all loved our tasting at beautiful Quinta deSanta Cristina Vinho Verde. Very knowledgeable guide and very nice staff.

We had a very interesting tour and tasting with Beatricio. Enjoyed the wines with the local ham & cheese tasting, with their delicious marmalade. Our favorite wine was the Alvarino Grande Reserva, which is a great value. Highly recommend (in pleasant weather)

We were privileged to have a personal tour of this family owned winery. We loved hearing about the history and enjoyed the passion they have for their craft.

Our guide was Norma and she was amazing- very friendly, knowledgeable and instructive. We have been on other small vineyard tours in Italy and France, but her Vinho Verte tour was exceptional. We learned an incredible amount in an hour’s time in terms of soil, weather, grape type, harvesting time and processing of the wine. She is passionate about wine making; she is an excellent educator. After the tour, we enjoyed a wine tasting with bread, charcuterie, and a taste of each of three wines: white, rose, and red, made in the traditional way. We highly recommend this tour!

Friendly staff, great views and good wine with snacks. Recommend a visit if you're looking for a brief wine tour

I can not recommend this tour high enough. Sofia was an extremely personable and knowledgeable guide as we walked along the vineyard and learned about the process of wine making. The vineyard was beautiful and the facilities were spotlessly clean. The highlight was the tasting room, which took our breath away with the spectacular view and the craftsmanship showcased in its construction. The outstanding scenery was only equaled by the wonderful wine and its food pairings. Sofia even had prepared a juice tasting for our 10 year old son. We had a perfect visit and highly recommend the excursion!

Staff are super hospitality and very detailed tour around. The scene is magnificent!! When you are there, you will feel all worth for the drive. The white is exceptional good and you must bring a few bottles home. We wish that we would spare longer there if not in hurry to return car to Porto! 工作人員非常熱情好客，介紹的也非常詳細、專業。所處位置風景實在美了！！要屏息欣賞。開車有幾個山頭要過，但當您到達那裡時，您會感到一切都是值得的。白葡萄酒超好，必須帶幾瓶回家。如果不急於趕回波爾圖還車，我們真希能在那裡停留更長時間！

A fantastic tour with an awesome guide! Got to see the entire process and don’t get me started with the tasting, just extraordinary.

We took a basic wine tour and tasting with Sophia; the tour of the winery was pleasant and informative, the tasting was fantastic, especially the tapas plate which was delicious. What really elevated the tour though was the vivid scenery and Sophia who was very warm, she also gave us great tips on the area and sorrounding cities and was very knowledgable. I recommend the tour for anyone who is interested, and especially try and get Sophia, she is great.

Sophia our guide was extremely friendly, patient and knowledgeable. A lovely family run business who care passionately about their vineyard and wines. Fantastic views of the Vino Verde region. Lovely wine tasting and tapas too. Would definitely recommend this trip. Make sure you leave enough time to find them !

Very very nice visit ! We felt really welcome although it was a busy day. The visit of the vineyard and the company was 👍. Soo clean! After the visit, we got to taste the wines and got a nice tapas plate. Visit to remember!

Francisco was very Nice. The visit was also very good. Technically very interesting. The view is wonderful! Take the time to make this tour. The visit is worth the trip!

Super fun experience with a very nice and smooth guide. A recommendation

Superb experience at the vineyard! Norma is a wonderful guide, passionate and unbeatable on her subject. Her explanations made the tour lively and the tasting captivating. We left with our arms full of good bottles and our heads full of memories. A must-see stop if you are in the area.

It was a fantastic experience at Quinta de Santa Cristina. The wine tasting was very well organized, the wines were excellent and the whole environment is welcoming and beautiful. A special thanks to Sofia, who received us with great sympathy, professionalism and knowledge. It made the visit even more interesting and memorable. We highly recommend this experience and hope to come back soon!

Good visit of the vineyards with friends. Very good guide who spoke English well and allowed us to understand, even though we were French. Thank you

The wine tasting experience was excellent. The guide was very kind, approachable, and explained everything very clearly and pleasantly. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the wines very much. Without a doubt, we would repeat it.

It is a highly recommended experience. They explained everything very well. Nice views, a very quiet place and very good wine.

Short tour of -/+ 20 minutes through the building. Nice view. Manicured building. The wine tasting itself was a disappointment. 1 glass of white, 1 glass of rosé and 1 glass of red with a small tapas plate. For a wine tasting I expected more wine... 3 glasses I find extremely disappointing. Little explanation with the wine. It's definitely not worth his price. It took less than an hour in total, while it was mentioned that it was going to take 1.5 - 2 hours.

We really liked the wine tasting and visit to Quinta de Santa Cristina. Norma who led us on the visit was very friendly and explained very well and in a simple way all the process from grape catching to the bottling, the history of the farm and we loved the taste of wines, left us very at ease and was very attentive with our daughter by providing her a taste of juices 😁. We liked the wines and brought home some.A very pleasant experience and that we recommend to everyone.

A beautiful discovery, in a beautiful setting with a breathtaking landscape on the mountains and a tasty tasting!

Sofia was exceptional! Thank you for this guided tour where we were able to learn the details of Vinho Verde grape varieties. I highly recommend the visit!

Sofia was a very attentive and polite guide, explaining all the details and clarifying all doubts. All spaces visited were very clean and organized. The link is accessible, which makes the Guided experience very pleasant. Finally, the wine tasting with cold cuts ended the visit in an excellent way.

Brilliant. Very attentive and considerate, since we arrived late and they still attended to us. The wine tasting was very good and calm. Very cozy place, with beautiful views. Recommended 100%.

The farm is incredible and so is the person who accompanied us. The wine tasting and the entire experience were worth it. Thanks.

We had an excellent experience, very good wines and wonderful views. Your employee Beatriz is super friendly and professional! Thanks I recommend!

We chose a menu of 3 wines with appetizers, for our children (9 and 11) the tasting is done with different juices with cookies and nuts. First you visit the facilities where they explain the entire process. It is done in Portuguese but it is perfectly understood. The girl who helped us was very friendly. We recommend it.

Super pleasant visit, with thanks for being available to make an appointment without much advance notice. Norma was super pleasant, approachable and thanks to her communication skills, she made the visit easier and a pleasant experience.

Very pleasant visit, beautiful landscape, super friendly guide. I loved. I will come back for sure.

Very knowledgeable tour, also knew a lot about pests that we deal with in NEurope and delicious wines and suitable snacks, the store prices are also very favorable!

Very interesting experience and the processes were very well explained. It paid off. Good experience to go with the family

The farm is beautiful and with excellent service. The guided visit was quite enlightening and Sofia was extremely sympathetic. We went to the taste of wines and regional products was delicious and to finish we had a delicious chestnut with folklore ranch and songs. Everything very well organized and delicious Thanks for the experience.

A friendly visit a very good Welcoming the information was interesting. Children were delighted with their fruit juice tasting and adults with the wine tasting and its accompaniments.

We went with our 2-year-old, we thought a lot before going, maybe it was boring for her but in the end who didn't want to go was she. The collaborators were brilliant in every aspect, including the occupation of our little one. A top experience. The view is beautiful. I recommend, even if it is in family.

Today we have been in this great family winery. We have been guided by David very professionally. Although we would have liked it to be in Spanish, we have understood each other quite well. The route has been enjoyable and interesting, with a highly recommended ending, as the tasting of broths and other products of its own making has been great. Thank you very much.
