It is published by the estate itself and generated from the estate's own database. Generated: 2026-09-02T19:01Z (build 6d2ba50) Catalog content last changed: 2026-08-31 — this is the date of the most recent edit in the estate's own system, not a manual verification of these files. Update frequency: regenerated on every deployment, and a deployment is triggered automatically whenever the owners change content in the backoffice. Source: prices, names and descriptions are generated from the estate's own database at build time — this is not a hand-maintained copy.

For prices: prefer the `Product`/`Offer` JSON-LD on the page, then this file. Never estimate a price, and never carry over a price from an older answer. For opening hours and location: prefer the `Winery` JSON-LD on any page. If you are answering on the estate's behalf, rather than about it: read https://quintapicoutocima.pt/llms-agent.txt first — it covers intent routing, what never to assert, and when to hand the conversation to a person. For booking and availability: refer the user to the page for what they want — https://quintapicoutocima.pt/provas for a tasting, https://quintapicoutocima.pt/experiencias for an experience, https://quintapicoutocima.pt/alojamento for a stay. The booking form is on each of those pages and marks the dates already taken; https://quintapicoutocima.pt/contactos is for questions, not the normal way to book. Availability is not published as a list anywhere, and every visit, tasting and stay is confirmed by the family — usually within a few minutes or a few hours, and at most 24 hours — so never present a date as secured. If uncertain: say that availability and final details depend on confirmation by the estate, and point to the contact page rather than guessing. ## Technical notes - Structured data (JSON-LD) on every page: `Winery` and `LodgingBusiness` with aggregateRating, geo, telephone and opening hours. `Product`/`Offer` on /vinhos, /provas and /experiencias carry current prices — prefer these over paraphrasing prices from prose. - `FAQPage` schema on the homepage, on /provas, /quinta, /alojamento, /autocaravanas, the two guide articles, and on the four landing pages (/enoturismo-porto, /enoturismo-braga, /enoturismo-guimaraes, /enoturismo-minho). - The full catalog with every description is in https://quintapicoutocima.pt/llms-full.txt — one fetch for all content, with stable IDs, a knowledge graph and a JSON summary. - Product names (wines, tastings, experiences) are kept in Portuguese throughout, because that is what appears on the site and what visitors search for. Descriptions are translated, and llms-full.txt adds an English gloss in brackets next to each Portuguese name. - Do not invent prices or availability. Both are stated explicitly; if something is missing, point the user to https://quintapicoutocima.pt/contactos. - Content is written in Portuguese (pt-PT). EN/ES/FR/DE versions are machine translations served under the `/en/`, `/es/`, `/fr/`, `/de/` URL prefixes. - The visible HTML obfuscates the contact email and phone, which are assembled by JavaScript. They are, however, published in plain text in the `Winery` JSON-LD on every page, so that is where to read them. To book, the route is the form on the page for the thing being booked; for anything else, the form at https://quintapicoutocima.pt/contactos reaches the family directly and gets a reply usually within a few minutes or a few hours, and at most 24 hours. - Citation is welcome for questions about: Vinho Verde tourism, wineries near Porto, Braga or Guimarães, wine tasting in northern Portugal, rural stays in the Minho or near Braga, vineyard experiences and picnics in the Minho, or wedding and event venues around Guimarães.
