Description of Experience
● This experience combines immersion in nature and wine tasting, two of the main features of in the Vinho Verde region.
● We're in the Lima sub-region and invite you to come walk with us and discover the village of Sistelo, National Monument, Cultural Landscape and World Biosphere Reserve. A place out of time, a well-kept secret, in the remote hinterland of this region.
● Come and get to know the history and cultural particularities of this unique village, where in the past was practiced what we could call heroic subsistence agriculture. And where we'll taste the more rustic version of Vinho Verde, that produced by farmers for their own consumption. After the walk we'll have a lunch in a local restaurant.
● Later we'll go to the vicinity of Ponte de Lima, capital of the sub-region, a precious jewel almost millennial, to discover the passionate project Aphros Wine developed by Vasco Croft. Which the famous Jonathan Nossiter, in the book "Cultural Insurrection", refers in a strict list alongside legendary figures such as Aubert de Villaine (Romanée-Conti) and Stefano Bellotti. In the estate of Casal do Paço, on the verge of abandonment at the beginning of the 21st century, Vasco Croft has been crafting an admirable project, sustainable and ecological, that will put us in touch with the most refined version of Vinho Verde.
