[.png?width=1920&height=1080&name=10%20Wineries%20not%20to%20miss%20In%20the%20Douro%20(23).png)](https://www.winetourismportugal.com/en/wine-tours/premium-tours/5-days-premium-tour-in-douro)
Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo extends over 120 ha of land, referenced since the first pombaline demarcation in 1756. Harmoniously integrated in one of the hills of the property is the original winery, dated 1764, and the 19th century manor house with the chapel (1765). Having been property of the Portuguese Royal House until 1725, it became a "new farm" by the junction of two farms into one. During the 18th and 19th centuries, several Portuguese families lived here and gave life to the vineyards and wine, the fruit orchards, the watermill next to the old olive grove and the stream that crosses the farm, during an important time in Douro agriculture.

The Quinta da Pacheca estate located in Lamego, is a wine property of the Douro region. Mentioned for the first time in a document dated April 1738, which had the reference "da Pacheca" because it belonged to D. Mariana Pacheco Pereira.
[.png?width=1920&height=1080&name=10%20Wineries%20not%20to%20miss%20In%20the%20Douro%20(27).png)](https://www.winetourismportugal.com/en/restaurants/portuguese-food/quinta-da-pacheca-restaurant)
The Quinta overlooking the Douro River, one of the best known, was one of the pioneers in bottling Port Wine under its own brand name. This typical property, surrounded by an extensive private area with vineyards, was bought in 1903 by Dom José Freire de Serpa Pimentel when he began his interest in enology, dedicating himself seriously to the winemaking business.
