1875 Ferreira T Duque De Bragança Dona Antonia A. Ferreira Porto Porto

Description

Since 1751, Ferreira has long been synonymous with high‑quality Portuguese wine. Its story intertwines with the evolution of the Demarcated Douro Region, defined in 1756, and its Port and still wines. Years later, the family firm came under the stewardship of Antónia Adelaide, widow of António Bernardo II. Renowned for her exceptional energy and rare commercial acumen, she gave viticulture in the Douro a major boost and pioneered notable social‑assistance initiatives in the area. After her passing, the company became a limited partnership and entered a new expansion phase, always preserving its core values. These principles have carried Ferreira into the present and were instrumental in creating iconic wines such as the legendary Barca Velha of the 1950s. Since 1987, under the management of Sogrape Vinhos, which has dominated the national Port market and introduced prestigious labels like Quinta da Leda, Ferreira has continued to thrive.
