Manzwine
Manz is located close to Ericeira, near the village of Cheleiros, where the winemaker André Manz discovered the almost extinct Portuguese grape “Jampal” and created something special: By focussing on quality (and not quantity) the Manz winery became famous for its “Dona Fátima”, the only wine worldwide which is made 100% of the Jampal grape. Because of its high quality and exclusivity this wine got ranked among the top 50 wines in Portugal!
Manzwine offers different tours to learn more about the process of harvesting and winemaking as well as different wine tastings. If you’re up for a more active style of wine tour you can rent a bike in Ericeira and cycle for 12km along the Lizandro River towards the Manz vineyard to finally treat yourself with a good glass of wine!
Price: starting from 20€
