1858 Ferreira Garrafeira Porto Porto

Description

Since 1751, Ferreira has always been synonymous with high‑quality Portuguese wine. The brand’s history intertwines with that of the evolution of the Demarcated Douro Region, defined in 1756, and its Port and still wines. Years later, the family company came under the management of Antónia Adelaide, widow of António Bernardo II. Known for her exceptional energy and rare commercial talent, she gave a major boost to viticulture in the Douro and developed a notable social‑assistance activity in the region. After her death, the company became a limited partnership and entered a new phase of expansion, always preserving its core values. These values have carried Ferreira to the present and were instrumental in creating wines such as the legendary Barca Velha in the 1950s. Since 1987, under the management of Sogrape Vinhos, the company has led the national Port wine market and continued to present prestigious wine brands such as Quinta da Leda.
