OUR PAST<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>

Tradition combined with modernity. Quinta da Alorna, with more than 300 years of history is owned by the Lopo de Carvalho family for five generations.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

Quinta da Alorna, was established by D. Pedro de Almeida. After conquering the resistant Alorna Fort, in the neighbourhood of Goa, where he held the position of Viceroy, he received from the King of Portugal, D. Jo\u00e3o V, the title of 1st Marquis of Alorna.
\nD. Pedro de Almeida, was D. Leonor, IV Marquess of Alorna – the poetess Alcipe \u2013 grandfather\u2019s. At that time (1723) the Estate, belonging to the Marquis of Alorna, was known as Quinta de Vale de Nabais. At that time (1723) the Estate, belonging to the Marquis of Alorna, was known as Quinta de Vale de Nabais.
\nMany years later, two of the daughters of D. Leonor sold the “Quinta dos Alorna\u201d (as it was called) to the counts of Junqueira, and the heirs sold it at public auction, passing it on to Dr. Manuel Caro\u00e7a – great-grandfather of the current shareholders – respectable dentist, merchandise broker and big business man who ended up becoming the sole owner of Quinta da Alorna.<\/p>\n<\/div>

In this process of discovery and sharing, Quinta<\/strong> da Alorna<\/strong> selected different artists who share the values \u200b\u200bof our brand.
\nKitato is the first photographer to embark on this project. He assumes himself as a storyteller \u2014 who has lived on Instagram since 2011 \u2014 and that’s where he travels and turns the world upside down.
\nIn recent years, his style has become closer to the land and the people who shape it, popular traditions and the identity of the people, roots, products and nature.
\nQuinta da Alorna<\/strong> is proud of the final result: Kitato<\/em> view of the farm, the project, the people and our wines.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
