Who we are
About the farm
We make our wines on our family estate at Vale de Lousas near Alcantarilha, in the Algarve; the women of the Alves family – Ana, Joana and Edite – are fulfilling the dream of João Maria Alves. Our 26 hectares of vineyards grow on red clay, sand and limestone-clay soils; besides our varietal wines (Alvarinho, Syrah, Negra Mole) we also make reserves, rosé, an amphora red and sparkling wine. On weekdays we offer guided estate visits and tastings, at weekends by appointment; we also hold harvest activities and events, and you can buy our wines in our online shop.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
