The Esporão vines are located in the heart of Reguengos de Monsaraz, where wines are more balanced and seductive, simultaneously thriving and pleasant, luxuriant and with a good age potential. If the vines are the lung of the Spore Homestead, the cellar is the heart that beats the rhythm of the harvest and the result of the work defined by the calendar and the oenology team.

The Herdade dos Grous cellar adopted a dominant renovation character in the production of wine. The cellar (built in 2005) uses the latest technology together with the traditional methods of wine making. All the grapes that arrive at the cellar are selected manually on a table and the wine is produced by the gentle macerating of each grape variety, in order to ensure its excellent quality.
You can book a guided tour to the wine cellar, wine tasting experiences, and have dinner at the wine cellar, definitely one of the most exquisite experiences in the Alentejo

Stop At: Quinta do Carmo, Portugal
The history of Quinta do Carmo dates back to the 17th century. King John IV commissioned the construction of Quinta do Carmo for a lady of his royal court. There is nothing left of those times except, perhaps, the wine and the Herdade das Carvalhas, where the wine came from and where they are still produced today.
The cellar, of attractive and modern lines, underwent considerable renovations concerning technology and wine production techniques. High-quality wines, such as the famous Quinta do Carmo white and Quinta do Carmo Reserva, among others, are produced here. These wines have a huge success not only in Portugal but abroad as well.
Their guided tour with wine tasting is an unmissable Alentejo experience.
