Luis Pato Unip. Lda

Globally known as ‘Mr. Baga’, Luis Pato is Bairrada’s brilliant rebel, a pioneer in modernizing the region and producing excellent wines from local grapes.

● Luis Pato inherited his family's visionary spirit, breaking traditions in the 1980s to elevate the Baga grape to the international stage. By introducing destemming, French oak aging, and the concept of Old Vines to the region, the producer transformed Bairrada wines. His mastery also extends to Maria Gomes and Bical whites, and vibrant, precise sparkling wines. With a portfolio that combines authorial ingenuity with a profound respect for the land, Luis Pato's wines are a manifesto of elegance, aromatic purity, and vitality, fundamental to Portugal's wine history.
