On this visit to the vineyards and olive groves of Quintón, you'll explore the farm, olive mill, and winery. Plus, you'll end the day with a wine and olive oil tasting paired with local products.
At the indicated time, we’ll pick you up at your hotel in Colonia del Sacramento and head to the vineyards and olive groves of Quintón, an estate just 30 minutes from the city where winemaking and olive oil production coexist in a unique rural setting.
After a brief introduction, the experience will begin with a video presentation that will help us understand the olive oil and winemaking processes before we begin our tour of the vineyards.
Next, we'll stroll through the olive groves and vineyards, observing how they are integrated into an ecosystem where the local flora and fauna also play a vital role.
We'll walk alongside the lagoon, ideal for birdwatching, while we discuss the specific agronomic characteristics of olive and grape cultivation. We'll also discover how the soil, humidity, and orientation of the plots directly influence the final quality of the olives and grapes.
Our tour will continue with a visit to the olive mill, equipped with advanced technology, where we'll explain the different stages of olive oil production, from receiving the fruit to extraction.
Next, we'll visit the gravity-flow winery, a facility spread across three underground levels where the wine is moved using the force of gravity. Did you know that this system allows for more delicate handling of the grapes and must? It's unique in the region!
To finish, we'll enjoy a tasting of olive oils and three wines from Quintón. This will be accompanied by a selection of cheeses, charcuterie, breads, olives, and nuts.
We'll say goodbye after a 3-hour tour and take you back to your hotel.
If you'd like to enjoy a full meal at the winery, you can book this option. In this case, after the tour, we’ll sit down in the restaurant to enjoy a set menu consisting of:
The entire menu includes still or sparkling mineral water and herbal teas.
