Chestnuts and New Wine Tasting at Quinta de Santa Cristina 

To enjoy the S. Martinho summer, Quinta de Santa Cristina celebrates the Magusto tradition, where roast chestnuts are eaten and new red wine is tasted. The event will take place on November 11, 2023, at 3 pm, at Quinta de Santa Cristina – Rua de Santa Cristina, 80 – Veade, 4890-573 Celorico de Basto. 

 The activity will begin with a guided tour of the winery, in which participants will be able to learn about the winemaking process from the grape reception area, through the traditional stone presses, through the vats and fermentation area, ending in the bottling and labeling area. 

 After learning about the production process, a regional snack will follow, consisting of cornbread, ham, chorizo, cheese, jam, patties, cod fritters, breaded bread and, of course, the usual chestnuts roasted over the traditional fire. To accompany it, visitors will be able to help themselves to new red wine directly from the vat and other Quinta de Santa Cristina wines already bottled. 

The price of the activity is 15 euros per adult, 8 euros for young people aged 5 to 17 and free for children up to 4 years old. Registration is mandatory and must be completed by November 10, 2023 on our website: https://www.quintadesantacristina.pt/enoturismo
