QUINTA DE TARRIO
Quinta do Tarrio is a farming estate, producing Vinho Verde wine, in the Minho region of Northern Portugal
Quinta do Tarrio has a 300 year history and is located in the fertile Minho region of Portugal. The delightful house is set in gardens with lawns and fruit trees and surrounded by the estate vineyards and kiwi plantations providing many pleasant areas for walks and picnics. Within the farm is the 'adega' for the production of the famous local Vinho Verde wine. In late September the wine harvest is an interesting time with the vineyards full of local people picking the grapes, the roads with old trailers taking the grapes to the adegas and old presses being used to extract the grape juice. The house is 4 km. from Barcelos which is a small Roman town and every Thursday it hosts the most famous market in Portugal. The town also has many small restaurants offering good cheap Minho cooking.
