Pedro Ribeiro

In 2001, Pedro Ribeiro ventured into the world of wine. He began with a harvest at Quinta do Noval and, over the years, gained experience in places such as Tintara and Hardy Wine Company in Australia, and Sandeman in Portugal. From 2004 to 2013, he worked as a winemaker at Herdade dos Grous in Alentejo, and between 2012 and 2013 at Quinta de Valbom in Douro. Since 2008, he has been a consulting winemaker at Herdade de Medeiros in the Alentejo region. In 2010, he founded "Bojador," where he took on the roles of CEO and winemaker. Since 2013, he has been the CEO and winemaker at Rocim, covering several regions such as Herdade do Rocim in Alentejo, Vale da Mata in Lisbon, Bela Luz in Douro, and Estrangeiro in Dão.

In 2021, he started a joint venture with Austrian winemaker Lenz Moser, creating Ribeiro & Moser. That same year, he also launched the "JUPITER" project, which has been widely praised for its innovation and creativity in wine production. JUPITER have garnered attention for pushing the boundaries of traditional winemaking, introducing very old methods and techniques that enhance the quality and character of the wines. This pioneering approach has been hailed as a bold step in modern viticulture, earning accolades from both critics and wine enthusiasts alike. JUPITER was the most expensive still wine ever launched in Portugal.

Since 2022, he has been a consultant at Quinta Vale do Anjo in the Lisbon region. Starting in late 2024, Pedro will also be serving as a winemaker for Pal Vineyards, further expanding his influence and expertise across different wine-producing regions.
