Herdade da Ventosa is a family-run agricultural estate located near Elvas in Portugal’s Alentejo region, within a protected Natura 2000 area. The estate focuses on the production of extra virgin olive oil sourced exclusively from its own olive groves, where sustainable farming practices are applied with respect for the surrounding ecosystem and biodiversity.
The combination of Alentejo’s hot, dry summers, abundant sunlight, and distinctive soils contributes to the character and structure of their oils. The portfolio includes monovarietal expressions such as Arbequina and Picual, as well as carefully balanced blends designed to harmonize fruitiness, bitterness, and pungency.
Olives are harvested and milled promptly to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. The oils typically show notes of green grass, almond, and a subtle peppery finish, making them suitable both for finishing dishes and for everyday culinary use.
Production is quality-driven, with close control over each stage from cultivation to bottling. Traceability and origin transparency are emphasized throughout the process.
The range is available in multiple formats tailored to retail and food service needs. Herdade da Ventosa represents a contemporary Alentejo producer that combines regional olive-growing tradition with modern processing standards and a clear commitment to sustainability.
