Quinta dos Lopes - Organic Producer from Algarve

Wine is certainly one of the most loved beverages in the world. It can be drunk with or without food and comes in many shapes and colours (red, white, sweet…). Combined with food it results in a “Wine and Dine” experience that continues to be one of the top relaxation methods for many. How about making all this enjoyment of food and drinks even more enjoyable? Today there is an eco-friendly option to many things and this includes food and wine. A great example of this is Quinta dos Lopes in Lagos, Algarve, which is an organic vineyard that also grows fruit and vegetable.

Quinta Dos Lopes

Sr Lopes’ products range from organic tomatoes, carrots, apples and pears to organic wines. The range includes:

Hence there is enough to choose from. And best of all, they are all organic.

Now why should we choose organic wine?
Firstly, organic wine is made from organic grapes and they follow very strict criteria on how they are grown and don’t add flavours to their products.

Secondly, since no pesticides or chemicals are sprayed on the produce, they are much healthier and often have brighter flavours. They provide you with the same benefits any ordinary wine would do but without the extra sulfites and chemicals hence more natural and better for your body.

Thirdly: “Organic wine is produced by farmers who emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality for future generations” (USDA).

The same benefits that go with organic wine go with all other organic produce as well. Less chemicals means more natural which means better for you. There are a lot of organic produce out there these days and it is important for people to understand why they should choose organic. Mercearia Bio in Portimão sells only organic products online and delivers them straight to your door. Can organic get any easier?
