Aliança Particular Tinto

Description

It was in 1927 that 11 partners, led by Domingos Silva and Ângelo Neves, decided to found Aliança in Sangalhos (Anadia), which already boasts more than 80 years of history. From the outset, the company exported immediately to Brazil, Africa and Europe, and today over 50 % of its production is destined for export—primarily wines, sparkling wines and brandy—which forms Aliança’s brand image in Portugal and in the roughly 60 countries where it is shipped. In 2007, Bacalhôa Vinhos de Portugal acquired the majority stake in Aliança, bringing it under the Bacalhôa Group and changing the corporate name from Caves Aliança S.A. to Aliança Vinhos de Portugal S.A., at which point the institutional image was also updated. Bacalhôa Vinhos de Portugal, one of the largest and most innovative wine companies in the country, has built over the years a wide range of wines that have earned it a solid reputation and the preference of both domestic and international consumers. Present in seven Portuguese wine regions, the company manages 1,200 ha of vineyards across 40 estates, cultivates 40 different grape varieties, and operates four wine centers (cellars), distinguishing itself in the market by its size and by the autonomy of its production—70 % of it is self‑produced.
