The history of Quinta do Infantado is long, dating back to its creation in 1816. Founded by Infante D. Pedro, the future King D. Pedro IV of Portugal and D. Pedro I of Brazil, it has been in the possession of the Roseira family for over a century. It is located about 4km from Pinhão, in the unique terroir of Vale de Gontelho, a micro-region that has long stood out for the quality of its wines.
For six generations, the "Roseira" in Covas do Douro has lived a life of vineyards and wine with passion and enthusiasm.
The first two generations only cultivated vines. With the purchase of Quinta do Infantado, João Lopes Roseira began the production of fortified wine.
In 1979, his sons Luís and António, based on the concepts of terroir and vigneron, began bottling their Port wines, fulfilling the family's dream. With this innovation, Quinta do Infantado became the only estate cultivating and bottling Port wine, thus breaking the monopoly of the merchants of Vila Nova de Gaia.
After the deaths of Luís and Antônio, their heirs continue the pursuit of the highest quality and maintain the path of innovation within tradition.
