Quinta de Lourosa - Activities and Visits
Nestled within the rustic valley of the Sousa River, Quinta de Lourosa is located in the municipality of Lousada, at the heart of the Vinhos Verdes wine route. The estate, which includes a 17th-century chapel and a house with eaves dating back to the 18th century, has been brought back to life in recent years, thanks to the labors of Rogério de Lourosa, a renowned professor of viticulture. His ties to the land are shared by his wife, children, and grandchildren, who take part in the day-to-day workings of the property, making this a true home. Aided by his daughter, the enologist Joana de Castro, Rogério de Castro has turned Quinta de Lourosa into a place where respect for nature and tradition go hand-in-hand with technical innovation and bold winemaking experiments. A favorite among wine lovers, Quinta de Lourosa is also an ideal destination for those in search of relaxation and discovery.
