Operated by Farm Experiences & Tours · Ventosa, Lisboa
Just 30 minutes northwest of Lisbon lies Torres Vedras, an understated jewel in Portugal’s Lisbon Wine Region. Here, Farm Experiences & Tours invites visitors to step onto 180 hectares of gently rolling vineyards that trace a long tradition of winemaking dating back decades. The landscape is shaped by mild temperatures and Atlantic breezes, nurturing grape varieties like Touriga Nacional, Alicante Bouschet, and Moscatel that thrive on this coastal terrain.
The centerpiece of the offering is the Picnic in the Vineyards experience at R. da Lomba 18, Ventosa. This isn’t just a meal; it’s an immersion into the flavors and rhythms of a working winery with historic roots. Guests are welcomed by the family producers behind the estate, who open the doors to their wine cellar and events space, sharing insights into their craft before seating visitors outdoors amid verdant vines and expansive views.
The picnic itself pairs local wines with thoughtfully curated baskets loaded with regional delicacies—cheeses, chorizos, olives, fresh bread, seasonal fruits, nuts, and handmade sweets. The setting offers a rare chance to slow down, savor authentic tastes, and soak in the shifting palette of green hills and blue sky. Whether you’re a wine enthusiast, food lover, or someone seeking a peaceful connection with nature, this experience blends outdoor enjoyment with cultural richness.
Farm Experiences & Tours stands out in the region not only for its high-quality wines but also for its commitment to making the vineyard approachable and memorable. With accessibility for small groups up to 20 and private arrangements available, it’s an ideal way to add terroir and texture to any trip centered on Portuguese wine country.
