With breathtaking views of the Douro River and the Tedo River, Vila Galé Douro Vineyards is located in the heart of the Douro Wine Region. With a strong agro and wine tourism component, this unit extends over the centenary Quinta do Val Moreira, which already appeared on the famous map of Baron de Forrester, drawn in the 19th century, which earned him a reputation as a cartographer.
On the south bank of the Douro, near the picturesque village of Marmelal, the property that houses Vila Galé Douro Vineyards is very close to one of the two landmarks ordered to be built by the Marquis of Pombal in 1757. Classified as buildings of public interest, they served to demarcate the area of the Douro's fortified wines, at the time under the jurisdiction of the Companhia Geral da Agricultura das Vinhas Douro. Thus was born the world's first demarcated wine region. Today, the terraced vineyards make the landscape surrounding this hotel unique.
Vila Galé Douro Vineyards stands out for its location, charm and exclusivity. Here you can enjoy the calm and silence, the scenery, but also the outdoor swimming pools, the regional cuisine of the Inevitável restaurant, whose terrace allows you to admire the surroundings. But also visits to the winery and tastings of Port and table wines from the Val Moreira brand, produced on site.
You can also take the opportunity to stroll through the vineyards, olive groves or almond groves (particularly beautiful when the almond trees are in bloom), always with the Tedo and the Douro as company. To round off your stay, take a river cruise, visit the region's wine estates or take a train journey. Seeing the almond trees in bloom or taking part in the grape harvest are other suggestions.
