点评:We have visited all the Madeira "classics" by now, so I wanted to have my parents, who joined us this time, to have an opportunity to visit a vineyard - and that's exactly what this tour is - a visit to an a beautiful area in Sao Vicente (you can see the fields easily from Capelinha N. S. Fatima, I would suggest to do both at the same visit as they pretty much next to each other),
Here we have learned a lot about the area, original owners of the lands, the company, the vines growing approach etc. - they don't show how the wine is made afterwards or matured, but instead you transition into the sampling part (it includes a charcuterie board) - and these are very generous, as you get 6 bottles and once this is done you can sample as much as you want afterwards, so it's not just a glass - however, these are white dry wines so it's not for every taste buds out there, especially if you care more for reds, or classic Madeira island associated wine - still an excellent experience and I think everyone can find something here for themselves.
You can book the tour with the lunch on the spot, but you want to book it in advance as they then prepare the meal for you (fixed menu for the day type of arrangement).
The drive to the place is perfectly fine, I read somewhere someone calling it "an adventure on its own" - nothing different then anywhere else in Madeira, including great views :)
翻译:到目前为止,我们已经参观了马德拉的所有“经典”产区,所以我想让我的父母有机会参观葡萄园——这次旅行正是如此——参观圣维森特岛的一个美丽地区(您可以从 Capelinha N. S. Fatima 轻松看到田野,我建议在同一次访问中同时参观这两个地方,因为它们几乎相邻),
在这里,我们了解了很多关于该地区、土地的原始所有者、公司、葡萄种植方法等的知识。——他们没有展示葡萄酒是如何酿造或成熟的,而是让您过渡到品尝部分(包括熟食拼盘)——这些非常慷慨,因为您会得到 6 瓶,一旦完成,您就可以在之后品尝任意数量的葡萄酒,所以它不仅仅是一杯——然而,这些都是干白葡萄酒,所以并不适合每个人的味蕾,特别是如果你更喜欢红葡萄酒,或者经典的马德拉岛相关葡萄酒——仍然是一次绝佳的体验,我我想每个人都能在这里找到自己喜欢的东西。
您可以现场预订包含午餐的旅游,但最好提前预订,因为他们会为您准备餐食(当天固定菜单的安排)。
开车去那里完全没问题,我读到有人称它为“一次独立的冒险”——与马德拉岛的其他地方没什么不同,包括美丽的景色 :)
