Barao de Vilar was established in 1996 from a small stock that Fernando gave to his sons Fernando and Alvaro VanZeller. The VanZellers were owners of Quinta do Noval one of the most iconic estates of the Port wine business, where the mythical Vintage 1931 Nacional comes from, consideres one of the two best wines in the World in the 20th century by wine spectator. It was also at Quinta do Noval that our winemaker, Alvaro VanZeller, initiated his professional path.
In 2007 Barao de Vilar expanded its range of wines to the making of Douro wines. After the experience acquired by 16th generations of wine producers, the excellence and quality in our Port and Douro wines has allowed us to be present in a significant number of international markets, which have gained great awareness for its value for high quality and value for money to consumer. The grapes Barao de Vilar uses to produce its Port and Douro DOC wines are supplied from different estates located in the three sub-regions of the Douro. Baixo Corgo, Cima Corgo and Douro Superior, mainly from the estates, known as Quintas, in the Douro Superior: Quinta do Saiao and Quinta de Zom.
