Olive Oil Quinta da Romaneira

The Douro Valley has a microclimate and soil particularly suitable for olive trees, which have been grown here for centuries.

Our olive groves are planted with the traditional varieties of Cordovil, Galega, Verdeal and Madural. After hand picking they are ground in a granite stone mill before pressing and filtration (first cold pressing only).

Our oil has a very low natural acidity, with a fine aromatic bouquet reminiscent of the herbs and plants that grow wild throughout the property.
