Quinta do Barco is a distinguished property located in the heart of Alto Minho | Northern Portugal

With a total area of approximately 26 hectares, it offers approximately 1 km of riverfront on the Cávado River, benefiting from a unique natural landscape and a serene environment that is difficult to find.

At the centre of this vast estate stands an imposing manor house, accompanied by a historic chapel, both preserved with their original charm. The main residence has eight bedrooms, several rooms of different sizes and atmospheres, and a fully equipped chapel, including a confessional. The entire house, as well as the chapel, are sold with their contents, consisting of pieces of great value and authenticity.

The property also includes an annexe, which has a hall with seating for 150 people, ideal for events, weddings, corporate meetings or private celebrations. This space is complemented by a fully equipped industrial kitchen, allowing it to support all kinds of functions.

There is also a second area consisting of another house and a warehouse, both with excellent potential for renovation, whether for housing, services or tourist accommodation.

The pool area is served by a fully equipped support house with a solarium, mini-gym, large fully equipped kitchen, male and female changing rooms, as well as generous storage space, ensuring functionality and comfort for all users.

For sports and leisure enthusiasts, the estate has a tennis/football court, perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape.

The entrance to the property is marked by a century-old gate, a true ex-libris of Quinta do Barco, which bears an ancient coat of arms and a remarkable tile panel, testimony to its history.

The extensive green fields are home to the estate’s vineyards (covering 22 hectares), which are dedicated to the production of excellent Vinho Verde wines. The main grape varieties grown are Loureiro, Alvarinho, Arinto and Vinhão. The result is wines with a striking character, strong personality and natural elegance, revealing bright colour, fine aromas and great expression on tasting. The vineyards, aged between 15 and 30 years, benefit from the proximity of the River Cávado, which gently runs along the entire southern side of the property.

The winery, located on the estate itself, is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, enabling modern, precise and rigorous winemaking, always focused on the superior quality of the wines produced. Production is approximately 200,000 bottles/year but with a capacity for 600,000 bottles/year, with producer/bottler status.

Quinta do Barco is also a property of literary significance, being referenced in Eça de Queirós’s novel ’O Crime do Padre Amaro’ (The Crime of Father Amaro), which reinforces its historical and cultural value.

Thanks to its size, privileged location and diverse infrastructure, this property has extraordinary potential both for the development of wine production and for the creation of a tourist project of excellence whether a boutique hotel, a venue for high-profile events or even the construction of bungalows by the River Cávado, offering unique experiences in the heart of nature.
