Vista Alegre is part of the Vallegre company whose shareholders represent the fifth generation of a family deeply rooted in the Douro region, and which is dedicated to the production of  high quality Port wines and Douro DOC table wines.
 
From books specializing in types of vine and from some abandoned terraces ‘mortorios’, it is believed that wines have been produced at Quinta da Vista Alegre since before the 19th century. All vines from the Quinta are classified as category A by the Casa do Douro, with some of the vines being more than 80 years old.
 
Today, and without ignoring its past and the knowledge acquired and passed down through the generations, the company has evolved into a dynamic, modern enterprise that maintains the production of the highest quality wines as its primary aim.
