2 hours (approximately)

What distinguishes this activity:
It’s not just working in the trees, it’s feeling the life of the farm in every branch. Learn traditional pruning and grazing techniques used for decades, applying them to real trees and seeing the result grow over time. The experience combines practical learning, connection with nature and care with each plant, something that only those who live the farm daily can offer.

The secret spice:
Patience and attention to detail, guided by those who know each tree and know the right time to cut, tie branches or graft. It is the combination of ancestral technique and sensitivity to nature that turns every gesture into art and every tree into success.

What to expect

The experience begins at Quinta de Recião, in Lamego, with a reception at the vineyard and a brief introduction to the history and wine tradition of the region. After the materials are delivered, we delve into a dynamic workshop on winter pruning and ingestion, revealing how these practices influence the quality and longevity of the vineyard.

Then comes the most anticipated moment: the practice on the ground. With specialized guidance, each participant experiences pruning and carries out his own graft, living in the first person the work of the vineyard. We also explore the conduct of the vine throughout the year, essential to ensuring grapes of excellence.

In an authentic and engaging environment, this is a practical, educational and memorable experience—perfect for those who want to learn, connect with the earth and discover the secrets behind a great wine.
