Quinta de Alcube is located in Azeitão, in the heart of the Arrábida Natural Park, between the São Francisco and São Luís Mountains, extending over 200 hectares of preserved rural space, where the sounds of Nature can still be heard.
The estate begins at the Alto das Necessidades Chapel, inside which stands a valuable 15th century Monument, classified as a National Monument, and descends the S. Francisco slope towards the valley, divided longitudinally by the Alcube stream, framed by centenary trees that hide an ancient Manor House, a sheepfold, a cheese factory and the Chapel of São Macário, the third Saint of this estate. On the left bank, the fertility of the valley repeats itself and ends in rounded elevations called Carapuços which, covered by Mediterranean forest, extend towards the Serra de São Luís.
8 km from Setúbal and the Arrábida Beaches and 30 km from Lisbon, Quinta de Alcube has about 30 km of footpaths, which can be followed quietly, in close contact with nature, stimulating the appetite for the exclusive products. Here the honey, the eggs and the ducks are from Alcube, the oranges are from Setúbal, the sheep cheeses, the Saloia breed sheep and the wines from the Setúbal Peninsula.
To the exceptional nature of Quinta de Alcube, we can add "Traditional Know-How", which means intervening as little as strictly necessary so that the products are really as natural as possible. With this concept as a motto, we invite you to visit the Quinta de Alcube, get to know our estate, our products and the production method of our wine. At the end, you will enjoy a tasting of 4 wines, accompanied by sheep's cheese, jam, toast, breadsticks, olives, French fries and crackers.
