Quinta do Quetzal – Sociedade Agrícola, Lda (NIF 505555654) is a family-owned estate in Vidigueira, Alentejo, with 52.5 hectares of vineyards and a restaurant and contemporary-art centre that opened in 2016. Systembolaget’s article ledgers record seven Quinta do Quetzal wines sold in Sweden in 2024 (109.5 litres) and three in 2025 (28.5 litres). None is in the Swedish monopoly’s current range.
Quinta do Quetzal is on the slopes of Vidigueira in the Baixo Alentejo, at the foot of the Serra do Mendro. The trading company is Quinta do Quetzal – Sociedade Agrícola, Lda (NIF 505555654). Its share capital is €11.25 million, and it is registered for wine production, viticulture and tourist entertainment. The estate belongs to Cees and Inge de Bruin, collectors of contemporary art who say they have had ties to Portugal for more than 40 years. Its 52.5 hectares of vineyards include 2.5 hectares of vines more than 40 years old. A building with a restaurant, shop and art centre opened in 2016, and their daughter Aveline de Bruin curates an exhibition there each year, mostly drawn from the family collection.
Systembolaget’s annual article ledgers show seven Quinta do Quetzal wines sold in Sweden in 2024. These were the Guadalupe Tinto, Branco and Rosé (SEK 119), the Guadalupe Winemaker’s Selection Tinto and Branco (SEK 149), the Quetzal Reserva Tinto (SEK 279) and the Quetzal Reserva Branco (SEK 249), together 109.5 litres. In 2025 three articles sold a combined 28.5 litres, led by the Guadalupe Branco (21.75 L). A check of Systembolaget’s live Portuguese range (567 products) and Vinmonopolet’s catalogue on 26 October 2026 found no Quetzal wines listed.
Quetzal is typical of many Alentejo estates in Sweden: a short run of order-range listings that sell a few dozen litres and then lapse. These wines did not win a monopoly tender and so never reached the fixed range. The estate now earns more and more from wine tourism and gastronomy at home. For Nordic importers, a producer with a full range from SEK 119 to SEK 279 and no current Nordic listing is an available partner.
In 2026 the estate marked ten years of its art centre, which drew features in Observador (April) and Versa (September). It was among the winners of the AMPV national awards in June 2026, and it updated its wine-tourism programme and restaurant menu in August and September 2026.
