The Producer

Quinta do Francês is a family property, with 8 hectares of vineyards, located in the Silves valleys, on the way to Serra de Monchique, on the Odelouca stream, in the most southern region of Portugal, the Algarve. With its exceptional climate, the Algarve not only attracts tourists looking for sunshine, but it is also a great "terroir" for the vineyards. The vines grow in a variety of soils such as clay, limestone, stoneware and even areas with shale, producing high quality grapes. The Algarve has a great heritage as a wine producing region. For many years, the wine trade in the Algarve was very important. But in the mid-twentieth century, wine production declined, as the benefits of wine could not compete with the profits that tourism brought to the region. However, in the 1980s, the Algarve gained the status of a demarcated region for Lagos, Portimão, Lagoa and Tavira. About 10 years ago, there was a revival of the tradition of wine production in the Algarve, new wineries that produce quality wines appeared.
