Vindimas experience in Alentejo at Herdade Clube do Campo, an immersive full-day journey into one of the most authentic and celebrated traditions of this region, the grape harvest. From a warm welcome with artisanal jams through a vineyard walk, hands-on grape picking, a winery and barrel cellar visit and a wine tasting of Santa Vitória wines with regional snacks, this is a genuinely complete and sensory encounter with the winemaking culture of the Alentejo. Every participant receives an exclusive harvest kit including a T-shirt and traditional straw hat, and leaves with a bottle of Santa Vitória Seleção to take home.

The day opens with fresh orange juice, water, coffee and artisanal jams before expert guides lead you through the beautiful vineyards of the estate, sharing technical insights into grape varieties, cultivation methods and the care behind every bottle. After the vineyard walk there is an optional lunch at the Alentejo Vineyards restaurant, paired with Santa Vitória wines from previous harvests, available at extra cost. The afternoon returns to the vineyards for the hands-on grape picking experience, learning practical harvesting techniques and deepening your connection to the winemaking process. The visit then moves to the winery for an exploration of the barrel cellar and wine production before the day closes with a wine tasting of Santa Vitória wines paired with traditional regional snacks.
