Quinta do Bomfim
Douro Valley, Portugal
- No.66 The World's 50 Best Vineyards 2025
Sunset Port and tonics on the pergola terrace of Quinta do Bomfim, overlooking the Douro River and its exalted slopes, taste all the sweeter when you've traversed those soils yourself: the Symington family's Wine Varieties Library includes 31 different types of grape grown across vineyards that you'll walk and picnic among. It is part of a pioneering project to understand and safeguard winemaking in the Douro's beautiful mountainous terrain – a UNESCO World Heritage site – further illuminated through tours of the 1896 lodge, a museum of historical photography and advanced winery equipment that has produced outstanding wines and Ports for generations.
