Alentejo Interior

Azeite do Alentejo Interior PDO

Plain, light and a land of its own.

Olive oil from the Alentejo plain — luminous scale between grove and table.

Olive branch on stone — Mediterranean atmosphere; not a depiction of this PDO.

Territory

Inland Alentejo.

An Alentejo plain of open horizons and long light — the scale of the olive grove in this interior.

Produced in the municipalities of Portel, Vidigueira, Cuba, Alvito, Viana do Alentejo, Ferreira do Alentejo and Beja, and in zones of Aljustrel, Castro Verde, Mértola, Torrão and Alcácer do Sal.

Between Portel, Vidigueira and Beja, the olive tree keeps company with the plain and rural life: a wide-field territory where the grove shapes the landscape as much as the table.
