Herdade Grande

Herdade Grande is an agricultural property located about 5 km from Vidigueira/Alentejo, comprising 350 hectares: 60 hectares of vineyard, 40 of olive grove, and the remainder serves as pasture land for sheep. This property has been in the same family for almost a hundred years, having been purchased in 1920, with its vineyards and olive groves. The current owner, who is the company manager and head of wine production, was born here and has a degree in Agronomic Engineering from the Higher Institute of Agronomy.

The viticulture project began with the installation of vineyards in 1980 and the vinification in 1997. Our aim is to produce and commercialize 350–400 thousand bottles of wine, of which 30% are White and 70% are Red.

In 2008, we started to commercialize olive oil from our olive, with the brand Herdade Grande, by means of providing services of a licensed mill that has specific facilities for that purpose.

We are integrated in the Alentejo Wine Rout, and we receive groups that can taste our products and, if they wish, buy them in the winery shop.
