1977 Maynard's Colheita Porto Porto

Description

Barão de Vilar, Vinhos S.A. was founded in January 1996 from a stock of wines acquired by Fernando Luiz Van Zeller, which was then ceded to his two sons, Fernando and Álvaro. Its corporate name revives a noble title granted by Queen Maria II of Portugal to Cristiano Nicolau Kopke, the 1st Baron of Vilar, in 1836, a title that remains in the direct possession of the family through descent. Before the establishment of Barão de Vilar, the Van Zeller family owned Quinta do Noval, one of the most reputable estates in the Port wine sector, from which the legendary “Vintage 1931 Nacional” originates, considered one of the two best wines of the twentieth century by Wine Spectator. Today, Barão de Vilar has been renamed Van Zeller Wine Collection, a company that represents a collection of values, ideas, stories, and wines.
