Hello. We are Jörg and Katrin. We are a couple with three children who realized that the office environment no longer fulfilled us and yearned for a new life, far away from the world of banking and finance. It was time to start over, return to our farming roots, and begin a new chapter in the beautiful Oeiras Valley, in Portugal, between Lisbon and Cascais.
Inspired by Portuguese heritage, our goal is to produce the rare and premium fortified DOC wine “Vinho de Carcavelos,” with ancient traditions dating back to the 14th century. So take a sip of the “Carcavelos” and get lost in its complex and delicate aromas. Let’s rediscover this ancient gem and capture the hearts and minds of wine lovers everywhere.
We use the swallow as our brand icon. It not only has a strong connection to Portugal, but it also represents us as a family-run business. We use these migratory birds as a beautiful symbol of our journey — a family that has always spread its wings and left its nest to explore other corners of the world. A symbol of love, loyalty, home, and strong family values.
