Casa Lata, located in the heart of Minho, combines the tradition of an old farmhouse with modern comfort, offering an authentic accommodation. In addition to producing the prestigious Terras de Amares wines, the property features 13 rooms in the main house and a villa with a private pool, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Vinho Verde region.

Once Upon a Time...

Located in Amares, between Braga and the Peneda-Gerês National Park, Casa Lata is a 3.6-hectare rural property that blends history, tradition, and modernity. Once a traditional Minho farmhouse, it retains iconic features such as the granary, the wine press, and the alembic, all living symbols of a rich agricultural heritage. Today, these spaces have been tastefully transformed into a bar and game room, where the guests can still admire the old stone wine press. 

Casa Lata is also home to the award-winning Terras de Amares wines, produced in the property’s modern winery using native grape varieties from the Vinho Verde region, situated between the Cávado and Homem rivers. 

The accommodation includes 13 comfortable rooms in the main house, complete with breakfast and a welcome drink, as well as a two-bedroom villa with a private pool, ideal for families or larger groups. The guests also have access to two bicycles and can book wine tourism experiences, such as wine tastings paired with local delicacies, offering a delicious and unforgettable dining experience. Casa Lata also provides guided tours to the winery, homemade meals upon request, and the opportunity to relax and explore the tranquillity and beauty of Minho, all with personalized service that reflects the warm and welcoming spirit of the region.
