Owned by Andrew Blandy, the Quinta de Santa Luzia is a traditional working estate that has been in the family for 7 successive generations.
Located near the centre of Funchal, the vines here are cultivated in trellis form on relatively large terraces. All white varietals, the primary grape grown here is the Bual followed by the Verdelho and lastly the rarer Terrantez, totalling 0,93ha of vines. Visitors are able to visit this sunny vineyard booking through www.blandywinelodge.com where they can enjoy a tasting of the wines produced at the Quinta.
Guided visits of the vineyard now take place year-round, with onsite, commented wine tastings at one of the old houses of the property – Quinta das Malvas. We offer Madeira wine tastings following a guided tour of the vines - see information above.
Important to know! Quinta Santa Luzia offers a superb choice of accommodation for groups and individuals - if you would like more information please click here: www.quintasantaluzia.com
