Works at the winery - what comes next?
This is a photo of the area around our winery. In the last weeks we have been working in this area. At the same time, in the edge, we have planted some olive trees. My question for you is: what will we do in this area? Tip: until some months ago there were red vines here.
The first to guess it will get a free bottle of Quevedo Rose Port next time he/she visit us!

I was going to mention the beasts that roam the vineyard, but Joao beat me too it.
I’ll guess that some white grapes will be planted to further the White Port trend.
Your going to build a large swimming pool with a swim up bar where we can sip your Ports and Wine’s
Ok Ok, seriously, building an area to process olives for olive oil? The pool option would be nice though LOL.
Ok, I think I figured it out. Your going to build a small hotel or bed and breakfast so people can stay at the Quinta. Am I close?
No Andy, but you are getting closer! We are actually rebuilding my great-grandparents house in Valongo dos Azeites, 15km away from Pesqueira. Well, it seems you’ll make me write a post about it!!!
You are going to build a “Tasting Room” where you show all your wines, kind of fame wall and make assisted tastings and tours?
Hi José, we already have a tasting room, on the right side of the building at the bottom you see on the picture! So that is not yet the correct answer.
Actually we will use some concrete but in something simpler and cheaper…
All we will do is a car parking… sorry, I probably failed to live up to your expectations! However, you made some interesting suggestions (some silly as well but that’s part of the game!!!) and something to consider in the future to build in other places! So the bottle of Rose Port will stay at the winery, but if you visit us I’ll make sure you try it anyways!
A car park! LOL. And here we all thought it was some grand building or such.
But I still like my idea of a pool with a swim-up bar where we can sip your Ports and wines while relaxing the day away :=)
O próximo passo é a montagem de 2 destilaria. Uma para o fabrico de Aguardente Bagaceira, aproveitando o engaço da uva e outra para o fabrico de Aguardente Vínica, aproveitando-se assim as Aguas pés e vinhos de ultima esprema ( de mau gosto e ” carregados ” de taninos ) .






Quevedo was founded in 1991 as a family owned business in the heart of the Douro valley, responding to the needs of the generations that preceded the associate founders. These ancestors were passionately dedicated to their vineyards and to the culture that surrounded the production of wine. Consequently, the company was created as a seamless marriage between the initial phase of production and the promotion and selling of their wines. Currently, the estate is comprised of 100 hectares located in the regions of Cima-Corgo and Douro Superior, producing both red and port wines from only the five traditional port grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Tinta Barroca.
