Winter warmers at Morgado do Quintão

Cinema, coffee, and community activities shape the winery’s The Circle cultural agenda this month.

Morgado do Quintão presents the December programme of The Circle MdQ – the winery’s year-round community – with two festive dates: an open-air cinema session on the 6th and a special sensory event dedicated to coffee — one of the highlights of the estate’s winter calendar – on the 10th.

6 December — Cinema Among the Vines

On 6 December, the vineyards become a winter cinema for screenings of A Charlie Brown Christmas and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.

A warm, relaxed evening for neighbours, families, and friends — with hot drinks, popcorn, sweets, and Morgado do Quintão wines. Cosy blankets will be available to keep the evening comfortable among the vines. Doors open at 4:00 p.m., with some sunset music, followed by the screening at 5:30 p.m.

Tickets: €10 adults | €5 children (3–14)

Warm Gestures — Shoebox Campaign

The event supports the 21st Annual Shoebox Campaign for the Elderly, in partnership with All Stars Cinema and delivered by Castelo de Sonhos (IPSS).

10 December — Coffee & Terroir

On 10 December, Morgado do Quintão hosts Café & Terroir, a sensory journey organised with Al-Gharb Coffee Roasters, an Algarve speciality coffee roastery dedicated to single-origin beans, traceability, and roast profiles that honour each origin’s natural character.

More than just a tasting, Café & Terroir invites guests to explore coffee as one explores wine: slowly, intentionally and with curiosity.

The experience includes:

  • Guided tasting of 4 speciality coffees
  • Full introduction to the professional cupping ritual
  • Understanding espresso vs. filter and alternative extractions
  • How aroma, temperature and texture shape flavour
  • A relaxed walk through Morgado do Quintão’s old vineyards
  • A closing conversation to deepen aromas, terroir and understanding

Price: €20

Multiple sessions are available throughout the day | Reservation required

Information & Reservations: Additional details and bookings can be found on the Morgado do Quintão website or through the estate’s team.
