VALLEGRE Vinhos do Porto, S.A., is a Portuguese company with a centuries-old tradition which has embraced the continuity of a family business for five generations - shareholders and managers represent the fifth generation of a family deeply rooted in the Douro region. Producer and exporter of high quality and prestigious Port Wine, DOP Douro and Moscatel wines, highlights not just the results of the expansion and modernization over the years, but also how the family-rooted ancient wisdom has been preserved. The head office is located at Quinta da Vista Alegre, in the heart of the oldest Demarcated Winegrowing Region in the world - the Demarcated Douro Region - in the “Cima Corgo” sub-region, just a few kilometers from Pinhão. The unspoilt and magnificent surrounding landscape, given its privileged geographical location, offers visitors breathtakingly views of the Douro River. Its points of interest are of outstanding natural beauty, in perfect harmony with nature, remaining etched in memory through a sharpened sense of sight - unique pleasures in the love of rurality, the scenery and nature itself. The Quinta's vineyards have a long-recognized history of producing wine, dating back to the 19th century. This is the conclusion drawn from books specialized in strain typologies and from some of the abandoned terraces, known as "mortórios". At the start of the 1970s, the company changed from a sole proprietorship into a limited liability company under the name - Sociedade Agrícola Barros S.A.. In May 1998, the company changed its name to VALLEGRE -Vinhos do Porto, S.A., resulting from the merging of the names of two of its most important Quintas – Valle Longo and Vista Alegre – but retaining its markedly family nature that spans five generations. Thus, VALLEGRE is a private, family-based, modern, entrepreneurial and dynamic company. Creativity, Innovation, respect for the environment, quality and Customer Satisfaction´s Principles are laid down in the Mission, Vision and Values of the Company. The production of DOC (Controlled/Protected Denomination of Origin) wines continues to be its primary aim: DOC Porto, DOC Douro and DOC Moscatel do Douro of the highest quality which are nationally and internationally renowned. Nowadays, the wines are sold and enjoyed in over thirty countries and the countless prizes and distinctions achieved in several international competitions prove the excellence of our quality.
