| The Adega do Cantor or Winery
of the Singer is situated at Guia, a few kilometres northwest
of Albufeira in the middle of the Algarve. It was built to produce
wine, principally the Vida and Onda Nova ranges, from three
surrounding Quintas, Quinta do Moinho, Quinta do Miradouro and
Vale do Sobreiro. Our aim is to produce the highest quality
wine that the region can offer using a combination of traditional
and innovative modern winemaking techniques.
The winery is situated at the top of Quinta do Miradouro from
which stunning views of the surrounding vineyards and coast
line can be seen.
As well as producing wine we also offer a range of guided tours
of the vineyards and winery, tutored tastings and the opportunity
to purchase both wines and a variety of merchandise. Please
see our visits page. |

Richard
Sir Cliff has known and
loved the Algarve for
over 40 years. His idea
to plant a vineyard at his property Quinta do Moinho provided
the genesis point for the Vida Nova range of wines.

| Sir Cliff is very
much involved in producing the wine. When in Portugal he is often
seen getting his hands dirty in the vineyard or indeed his feet
dirty in the winery. Visit Sir Cliff Richard's official website
