Quinta Santa Eufemia was founded in 1864 by Bernardo Rodrigues Carvalho, and now is managed by the fourth generation of the Family who have been producing these fine old Douro Port wines, preservinf the alge-old-skills of winemaking and ageing.Situated on the left side of the river Douro, with over 50 hectares under vines, the vineyard produces grapes of the richest varieties, trodden in the traditional way and fermented on granite vats in order to extract their finest essences.The wine is aged in oak casks before being selectively blended to satisfy the most refined palates. We have a shop where we sell our products We make tastings and visits. Please make always a reserve.
We went here as part of a wine tasting tour through Douro valley and tried a few of their port wines. The tasting was really good, the lady who guided us through the wines was really friendly and forthcoming and explained everything to us, starting with the history of the winery, how the different port wine families differ and what makes them different and stand out. The wines were really good as well and we were never forced into buying anything! Nevertheless we got two small bottles in the end, cause it was really good and we wanted to support a business like this, especially in times like these. Would recommend this winery 100%!

QUINTA DA PACHECA Nearly three hundred years old, Quinta da Pacheca is one of the Douro’s most renowned estates where worldwide awarded wines are produced. One of the first to bottle wine under its own brand, Quinta da Pacheca has always valued traditions, having one of the few 18th century’s remaining milestones, used in the original Pombal’s 1756 world’s first wine region demarcation. With 140 acres along and sloping down to the Douro River, the property is mentioned in an April 1738’s document as “Pacheca”, owned by Lady Mariana Pacheco Pereira. In 1903, by the hand of its new owner, the noble Jose Freire de Serpa Leitao Pimentel, the wine production significantly increased. The vineyards were then renewed and varieties were arranged by fields. The estate was again refurbished in 1916 and new warehouses were built. Eight imposing granite wine presses or “lagares” were then constructed and continue in use today, for the vinification Pacheca’s wines, under the advice of winemaker Maria Serpa Pimentel and agronomist Hugo Fonseca, for the vinification of Pacheca’s wines, for limited annual production of Douro DOC wines and special categories of Port Wines only. Maria do Ceu Goncalves and Paulo Pereira bought the estate in 2012, starting a new era of expansion and vitality.
You can't afford to miss it. Inside the Douro Valley region, you will find an opportunity to taste an excellent quality of wines from Douro, since Ports, Moscatel, reds and whites. Don't forget to taste the olive oil produced in the Quinta. Can you imagine sleeping in a wine barrel? You can do it there. Discover the magnificent restaurant. What a place!!! My favorite in the Douro Valley region.
