“Founded in 1928 under the name Sociedade Agricola Paço do Conde, the origin of one of the oldest agricultural companies in the country, is nowadays run by its current owners, Jose António Ferrão Castelo Branco, Luis Miguel Ferrão Castelo Branco and Maria Luisa Castelo Branco Schmidt, grandchildren of the founder. Owners of a number of different agricultural companies which comprise the Paço do Conde Group, we are currently responsible for operating around 4,400 hectares of agricultural land on the banks of the Guadiana river, Baixo Alentejo, southern Portugal.
In addition to the production of grapes for wine, diversified crops are produced in the 4,400 hectares of the Estate, such as olive groves, wheat, barley, corn, onion, garlic, poppy, sown and natural pastures for cattle and black mountain pig. The continuity of the Agricultural exploitation and the development of the cellar and oil press are essential components of this project. The passion for the land leads to the respect for nature and environment passed on by our ancestors. The entire Estate is situated in a game reserve which, associated with the Integrated Production system in its cultures, allows for the preservation of fauna and flora. This passion for the land and what we do is shared in each bottle of wine and olive oil produced by Herdade Paço do Conde.
We pour our family values into Herdade Paço do Conde in order to build a common purpose, that of being recognized as a market leader without losing the essence of what made us get here.”
