Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour on Pico Island

Intertwined with the local communities we curate encounters and tastings you wouldn't otherwise be able to live, EXCLUSIVELY with independent wine producers.

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.

After our walk in the landscape of Pico Wine, to refresh our feet, we drive 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.

Czar Pico wine is unique in the world, say wine critics and scientists!

Its price can reach more than 1000€ per bottle, reflecting the History it carries and the risks taken by its producer: Fortunato, who owns some of the oldest Verdelho, centenarian vines.

With a perfect balance between acidity & sweetness, Czar wines reach 18 degrees of alcohol exclusively from fermentation, differentiating it from liqueur and fortified wines (like port wine), to another category. The unique Czar wines! 

Because grapes are harvested very mature, strong wind or rain can tear these gold grapes to the ground and destroy all harvest.

This year we are lucky! Fortunato just bottled the 2015 harvest and we have some from previous years exclusive for wine tastings. Aged for 8 years in oak barrels, limited to 1000 bottles. We saved some for you!

Join us in this exclusive wine tasting, meet the producer & taste limited editions of Czar Pico Wine you will otherwise not be able to find in the market.
