At Cella Vinaria Antiqua in Alentejo you will visit a centuries-old winery‑museum that has been restored and converted into a workshop devoted to the production, preservation and dissemination of the ancient technique of producing wine in clay pots. As you move through the space, you'll encounter areas that explain how this method is carried out and maintained, with clay pots and curated displays that illustrate the traditional approach to winemaking.
Along the way you will learn about the history, culture and tradition of Alentejo and how they connect to this millennia‑old practice. The site tells a story spanning thousands of years and brings together the region’s heritage with the practical knowledge used to keep the clay-pot winemaking technique alive. You will leave with a clearer sense of the historical roots of local wine culture and the ways those practices have been preserved and shared.
