Day One
Once you’ve checked in, enjoyed the afternoon in the Douro Valley and the panoramic views from your accommodation, you are invited to join your hosts for an aperitif followed by a traditional Portuguese feast created just for you by La Rosa’s Head Chef Pedro and his team, paired with La Rosa wine in the stunning, yet rustic setting, of the barrel room.

Day Two
After breakfast there will be a tour of the vineyard and wine tasting with the Bergqvist family, so you can hear all about the traditional processes they use to produce their wine and port and see the grapes on the terraced vines. During the tasting you will be treated to a tasting of the most delicious cured and smoked meats with the local butcher – Mark and Mitch’s favourite place to visit when in Pinhão!

Day Two
After the wine tasting you have the rest of the day to explore or relax. Perhaps visit Pinhão for some lunch, enjoy a boat trip along the Douro if the weather is on side, or simply relax at the hotel and enjoy the incredible views. Or maybe visit the butchers to buy some local produce to take home.

Day Two
That night there will be a 4-course meal featuring the best of local produce curated by Mark and Mitch. Each dish will, of course, be paired to La Rosa’s stunning Tonnix wines. The chefs will be mingling with everyone throughout the evening too, so there will be plenty of time to chat.
The next morning is check-out day, so after breakfast you can either make your way home, or head into Porto to continue your mini break.
