HISTORY
In 1996, Bacalhôa Wines of Portugal was regarded as the Best Company of the Year by the author of Roteiro Prático dos Vinhos Portugueses (Practical Roadmap for Portuguese Wines) for all the work that was done to increase wine consumption. The range of wine produced by Bacalhôa Wines is what some might call a genius idea and an excellent example of a good price-to-quality relationship. The author who wrote the roadmap said: “Antonio Francisco Avillez produced a wine that could be distributed and enjoyed by a large number of people, without disregard for quality. This way JP Azeitão went against the tendency that high-quality wines in Portugal were only available for the elite. The success of this wine was extended to international markets including high sales in the U.S. and Irish markets.
