Helen
This isn’t your usual winery tour and tasting, you’re literally going to be ushered into a small room with a load of strangers and given some vinegary wines by a gruff woman who doesn’t really seem to want to be at work or know much about wines. Don’t do the cheeseboard, it’s overpriced and it’ll just be shoved on the table so you’ll have to eat it whilst everyone else watches you.

We came with best intentions to do a wine tasting and learn about their wines. Unfortunately staff was unfriendly and didn’t seem interested in hosting us. I was telling we would rather skip the red wine but would like to try a certain white from their portfolio to complete the lineup, but this was refused. I understand that 20€ for tasting 3 wines is local standard and I am always happy to support wineries and pay this price, even though it’s beyond international standards. I would just expect a little flexibility and customer orientation in this case. The opposite was the case: We have never been treated with this level of indifference at a winery. So in the end we decided not to do a tasting and skip this winery for good.

We had the most wonderful experience at the Pico Island Wine Cooperative thanks to Ana. Despite our very last-minute request, she graciously accommodated us for a wine tasting and welcomed our young family with warmth and patience. Ana is incredibly knowledgeable — she shared not only exceptional wines with us but also deep insights into the unique viticulture and history of Pico. Her passion was infectious, and she went above and beyond to make the experience engaging, educational, and relaxed. It was a true highlight of our trip, and we left with a much deeper appreciation for Pico wines. Thank you, Ana!

The tasting is very good. The server is nice, takes the time to answer questions, the wines are very interesting, it's something you don't find in France. In truth, you have to go there even if for my taste the tasting is a bit expensive. The downside is the reception. You arrive and no one comes to see you, you have to run after it a bit and you don't understand how it works. There is the tasting and then you also see a kind of place where you can eat / drink but I still don't understand how you can go there.

Great place to get a taste of the local varieties and try some of the well known labels. The staff were extremely kind and helpful and guided us through an exploration journey of the local varieties. We learned a lot about Pico and its wines as well as possible pairings. Better make a reservation beforehand as it can get busy and also a bit noisy.
