World Tourism Day: Rise of Wine Tourism

Sep 29th 24

Every year, on September 27th, we celebrate World Tourism Day—a day dedicated to raising awareness of tourism's cultural, social, and economic value. This year's theme highlights a growing trend that combines travel, culture, and gastronomy: wine tourism.

Wine tourism has evolved from a niche experience into one of the most exciting travel industry sectors. What was once a curiosity for wine enthusiasts has become a global trend. Travelers worldwide seek immersive experiences that connect them with the art of winemaking, local culture, and breathtaking landscapes.

Over the past few decades, wine tourism has transformed into a sophisticated experience. Countries with rich viticultural traditions, like Portugal, have invested in showcasing their wines and rich history. Travellers are drawn to estates where they can enjoy wine tastings, learn about grape cultivation, and explore vineyards, all while soaking in the beauty of the landscape.

Portugal's Douro Valley, home to some of the finest wines in the world, has become a top destination for wine lovers. The region is known for its terraced vineyards, ancient wineries, and world-famous Port wine. Visiting the Douro Valley is like stepping into a living museum of winemaking traditions that date back centuries.

At Kranemann's Quinta do Convento de São Pedro das Águias, we are proud to be part of this flourishing wine tourism movement. Located in the heart of the Távora Valley, our estate perfectly blends historical charm and modern winemaking excellence. The estate offers a unique opportunity for visitors to explore our rich wine portfolio, including our Ports and Douro wines, while discovering the centuries-old convent and its beautiful cloisters.

Whether you are a wine connoisseur or simply curious about winemaking, visiting Kranemann Estate provides an unforgettable experience. Guests are invited to pass by the ancient vineyards, visit the historic convent, and taste our entire range of wines, each crafted with passion and respect for tradition.

We invite you to join us at Kranemann Quinta do Convento de São Pedro das Águias for a wine journey. To book your visit, contact us today:

Wine tourism is more than just tasting wine; it's about experiencing the land, the people, and the history behind every bottle.
