Just outside the usual tourist trail in Marco de Canaveses, where Vinhos Verdes and Douro wines overlap, there’s a peaceful organic estate waiting. You’ll wander through the vines, say hello to the sheep and geese that naturally keep the grass in check, and peek into the cellar to see how the grapes become wine. The best part is sitting down to taste their fresh organic bottles alongside real local food that tastes like it came straight from the garden. In summer you might even cool off with a quick dip in the estate’s big tank before the easy ride back to Porto. Quiet, genuine and the kind of day that feels like a secret find.
