Barrancarnes

The Alentejo breed is a descendent of the sus mediterraneus wild boar from the south, deriving from Iberian or Roman lineage;

Due to its genetics and the fact that it was not crossed with other breeds, it has greater capacity for the infiltration of intramuscular fat;

Historically preserved in Portugal, the Alentejo Breed is a unique and valued breed throughout the world and is recognised for its authenticity
