Quinta Durius
Property Description
One of the oldest demarcated wine regions in the world and a Unesco World Heritage site since 2001, the Douro Valley is very peaceful most of the year, apart from three bustling weeks at harvest time each autumn. Yet there is plenty to do for wine enthusiasts as well as the rest of your party: vineyard walks and picnics, winery visits and wine tastings, boat trips along the Douro River, a historic train ride, exploring the traditional gastronomy, grape treading at harvest time. Originally built in the XVII century, this property is steeped in history and whilst the interiors reflect this, recent renovation works have added modern-day comforts to the ancient building. Beautiful gardens and terraces surround the main building and the swimming pool has a stunning setting, suspended over vineyards and the river. The old 'lagares' (stone troughs in which grapes were trodden) are now set up as a gym and there is also a padel court and a snooker table for guests to enjoy. The wine cellar makes a rather special event setting for celebratory dinners or a corporate get-together, and still features the traditional earthen floors once used to maintain the ideal temperature and humidity for wine storing.
