Morgado do Quintão

With a strong commitment to disrupting the status quo and bringing viticulture back to its forgotten roots in our region, the current generation of Morgado do Quintão is shaping a new perspective on Algarve wine, seizing an opportunity to nourish the land where vines first arrived on the Iberian Peninsula.

This wine is an homage to the essence of the Algarve.

Morgado do Quintão

Wildly enveloped by the pastoral verdure of the Algarvian Barrocal, Morgado do Quintão was founded in the early 1800s by the Count of Silves, and still remains in the same family, one whose unerring and resilient passion for the land, food, adventure and entertaining merges with a love of local heritage, beauty and conservation.
