Quinta do Bomfim (Dow's)
Quinta do Bomfim
A Symington family estate on the edge of Pinhão and the core producer of the Dow's port brand. You can walk there from town.
Quinta do Bomfim belongs to the Symington family and is the core vineyard of the well-known Dow's port brand. It lies on the east side of Pinhão, a 10-minute walk away. The visitor centre is housed in a former winery, displaying family history and traditional winemaking equipment, and offers several tastings, including vintage ports. You can also hike along a vineyard trail up to a viewpoint on the hill. The attached Bomfim 1896 restaurant is well regarded. You can visit without a car, which makes it a good option for those arriving in Pinhão by train.
Opening hours
Daily 10:00–18:00 (tastings best booked in advance)
