It's about a foot tall, with a strange 'V' being the only mark, and that's on the neck.

I think the V stands for Vinegar and this is part of a cruet.

That depends on the size of the jug, if it's a bigger size can be for Vino.

Ah, right, that makes sense. A wine jug. So how many places have leaping goats and the word for wine beginning with 'v'? Er... France, Spain, Portugal, Finland, Norway...

Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the size.
It doesn't look portuguese though.
