Situated within the storied landscapes of Lamego, Portugal, Quinta da Pacheca isn’t just renowned for its wine—it's also a destination for those seeking well-being amidst timeless vineyards. While the rolling hills and historic architecture draw outdoor enthusiasts, the estate offers a unique retreat with its 75-minute Biotec Facial designed specifically for men. This treatment blends cutting-edge skincare techniques like ultrasonic peeling, steam, and galvanic currents, targeting stress, aging, and fatigue. Amidst the vineyard’s serenity, meet at the Wineshop for an experience that renews both body and spirit, right in the heart of the Douro Valley.

The Biotec Facial is a stand-out offering in the region, combining scientific innovation with a tranquil setting to deliver visibly refreshed skin. As you settle into the treatment, the ultrasonic peeling gently exfoliates to remove dead skin, while steam opens pores in preparation for deep cleansing.

This session is perfect for travelers who want to complement outdoor adventures with a moment of self-care that feels as invigorating as summiting a peak or crossing a river.

Quinta da Pacheca’s commitment to quality makes it an essential stop for visitors to Lamego.
