Press Review

"The Shropshire-based Tanners has a couple of treats too. Carvalho Martins Golpe Douro Branco 2023, is a classy white that tastes of greengage, ripe pear and white peach with a glittering, saline edge, ideal for fish and seafood."

Familia Carvalho Martins

Family-owned estate in the Douro Superior, Carvalho Martins makes fresh, characterful wines close to the Spanish border. Quinta Vale do Olmo has been in the Carvalho Martins family for four generations, with vines originally planted in the early 20th century by the great grandfather of current owners (and brothers) Vasco and Rui Martins.

During the 1980s, their parents increased plantings of indigenous varieties, taking the estate up to its current standing of 25ha but it wasn’t until 2014, when the brothers returned from careers in Banking and Law, that they stopped selling their fruit in order to make their own wines. The vineyards are in the Douro Superior, close to the small city of Mêda, only about 25km from Spain. High diurnal temperature ranges and altitudes of 550-600m provide terrific natural acidity, while the schist/granite and quartz-rich soils give great mineral expression to the wines. Sustainable methods are used throughout the vineyard and winery. The wine is labelled as Golpe (‘coup’) which refers to the change from selling their fruit to producing their own wines. A new winery and cellar was built in the town around 2014 with plans to develop eno-tourism, and there is a marvellous large dovecote repurposed as a unique tasting room!
