The wine tour that we propose to do in the Alentejo will take you through the region’s vast plains and stop at the most emblematic locations. The cold climate in winter and high temperatures in summer give the region its ideal conditions for the production of wine. Its history boasts many large estates for the large scale production of wine as well as cereals, olive oil and cork extraction, Portugal being the world’s largest producer and exporter of cork. The people of Alentejo who have been shaped by the climate also have very specific customs and traditions unique to the region, like the type of singing that is performed by farmers, classified as a Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

The Alentejo landscape is still well known for its hills and houses with whitewashed walls and coloured bands ranging from blue and red to yellow. We therefore have a wide and rich offer of itineraries tailored to our customers, depending on the weather and time of year they visit.

Get in touch with us to discover the famous Alentejo landscape and the best spots in the region before unwinding at Herdade do Freixo for a delightful tour of its wine cellar and a traditional dinner.
