Quinta do Quetzal is set in the heart of the Alentejo region on the rich slopes of Vidigueira, close to the oldest known Roman winery in Portugal and Spain.

At the moment, we only ship to Continental Portugal. Although, we’re working hard to expand our shipping to other territories.

A complex, sweet wine, rich in ripe black fruit aromas and very intense on the palate, ideal as an aperitif or to accompany dried fruit.

  • Quetzal Verdelho 2019

    Our excellent Verdelho is created from grapes from a plot located in the lower parts of Quinta do Quetzal, in more fertile and fresher lands. Grapes are hand-picked and cooled 24 hours before being processed naturally by gravity in our modern winery. A true Verdelho experience.
