Producer Information

Located in the Douro’s most prestigious region, Cima Corgo, Quinta do Infantado was founded in 1816 by the future King D. Pedro IV of Portugal and D. Pedro I of Brazil. Taking its name from the Portuguese word for prince (“infante”), it was bought by the Roseira family at the end of that century, whose bold spirit has made it one of the Douro’s most popular destinations. Owing to export laws requiring Port wines to be aged on the coast, at Vila Nova de Gaia, small producers like this one stuck to farming the vineyards until 1979, when brothers Luís and António broke with tradition by becoming the first to bottle their own wines. Those hit the international market with a change in the law in 1986, marking a shift in the region’s long-established traditions. Fifth generation winemaker João (who hasn’t missed a harvest since he was six years old) has maintained that spirit of innovation: an early champion of sustainable farming in the Douro, he has gained organic certification for 12 of the estate’s 46 hectares, the remainder farmed sympathetically under integrated production. He now runs the estate alongside his saunt Paula and cousin Álvaro.
