What To Expect

Discover the history and the taste of a unique volcanic, mineral & salty wine, unique in the world, while immersing in the local culture, people and… nature!

We meet in Madalena, to start with short walk, through the vineyards right by the sea, at the foothills of Pico Mountain, in the landscape of Pico Wine - considered since 2004 a UNESCO World Heritage site.

This heroic wine comes from vines that grow from lava soil and flourish on the rock. All the work is done manually and none of this has changed in 500 years, when the first settlers introduced grape growing in Pico.

To refresh our feet, we take you to one of our favorite natural swimming pools, in an amazing setting or just lay down for a bit, exchanging more local stories and preparing your appetite for the next stop.

Finally, we take to a wine tasting in a beautiful setting with an emergent and promising awarded independent local female producer.

You will experience all the landscape and history in your mouth!
