Introducing the Ultimate Harvest Experience
Discover Portugal’s Most Immersive Wine Tourism Experience
This autumn, Symington Family Estates invites wine lovers, curious travellers, and budding viticulturists to go beyond the vineyard tour and step into the heart of harvest. Our Ultimate Harvest Experience is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the Douro through the lens of those who know it best – the winemakers, the farmers, and the family behind one of Portugal’s most iconic wine houses.
Hands-on. All-senses. Unforgettable.
A Full-Day Adventure in the Cima Corgo
Set against the golden slopes of the Douro at Quinta do Bomfim, guests will roll up their sleeves and immerse themselves in the rhythms of vintage. This is not just a tasting. This is your chance to:
• Harvest grapes by hand alongside the vineyard team
• Stomp grapes in the traditional granite lagares of Quinta do Vesúvio
• Explore the winemaking process, from picking to fermentation
• Enjoy exclusive wine tastings – including rare Ports and limited releases
• Savour a three Douro-inspired lunches with spectacular river and vineyard views
All guided by our in-house experts and a few members of the Symington family.
Authentic, Educational, and Incredibly Fun
This experience is designed to connect guests with the craft, history, and natural beauty of the Douro. You’ll walk away with purple-stained feet, a full heart, and a deeper understanding of what it truly takes to create exceptional Port and Douro wines.
Perfect for wine lovers, teams looking for a unique bonding experience, or travellers searching for something truly special.
