Lugar da Ribeira / Apartado 71, Nagoselo do Douro, |
Quinta do Javali Quinta do Javali is a family company and our aim is to produce and sell high quality DOC DOURO, PORT wines (we are the smallest producer of PORT wines) and DOURO olive oil. Quinta do Javali is located in Nagoselo do Douro, a small village in São João da Pesqueira, in the heart of the Douro Region. It’s on the left bank of the Douro river. We have 18 hectares of vines with the traditional grapes of the region. We have 5 different terroirs located in Nagoselo do Douro and Ervedosa do Douro. We produce about 50.000 liters per year. Our wines represent our passion and vision of what the wines of the Douro and Port Wine should be - with enormous personality and character. We make wines that we like and that give pleasure to drink. We find inspiration in the beauty and tradition of the region. We use the tradition to make classic, natural and unique wines. 80% of our vineyard is biological and we have also one in biodynamic. Our wines express the terroir and the wine year. They are dry, dense, full-bodied and most important they smell and taste like wine. We are a believer in minimalism in oenology so we try to interfere as little as possible in winemaking. Only then can we have a genuine and authentic wine. The wine should go its own way and we limit ourselves to just trying to guide it .....as a father does to a child. For us the secret of wine is always in the vineyard and having good grapes and not in the technology we use. We make organic wines and now we start doing also a biodynamic wine. |
