Wine, like life, is meant to be enjoyed. On this full-day tour, explore the island of Madeira through an intimate approach, discovering vineyards, producers, and the wine styles that define the island’s identity. The experience takes place in a small group of up to 12 participants.
With more than five centuries of history, Madeira Wine has earned worldwide recognition. But the island goes beyond its fortified wines, revealing a growing production of still wines that reflect the unique terroir of the archipelago.
The day begins in Funchal at the historic Blandy’s Wine Lodges, where you will visit the cellars and enjoy a tasting of two Madeira wines. We then head to the north coast, to São Vicente, to visit Quinta do Barbusano. Here, you will enjoy a traditional Madeiran lunch served among the vineyards, paired with still wines produced on the estate.
After lunch, the tour continues to Seixal to visit Terras do Avô, where locally produced still wines are tasted alongside regional snacks. Before returning to Funchal, there is a final stop in Estreito de Câmara de Lobos at Vinhos Barbeito for a tasting of special fortified Madeira wines.
