Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande Branco

Description

Sogrape Vinhos was founded in 1942 by Fernando van Zeller Guedes with the ambition of introducing the world to Portuguese wines and a long‑term vision based on the quality of the wines sold, the novelty of the brands, and the presentation of its products. Today, led by the third generation of the founding family, Sogrape Vinhos increasingly fulfills the objective set at its inception: to be a family‑run company with an international focus, dedicated to producing quality wines, innovating, and developing Portuguese brands of global calibre. The company owns about 830 hectares of vineyards across Portugal. Casa Ferreirinha and its wines have long been synonymous with time and art. Since its founding in the 18th century by Bernardo Ferreira, the recipe has been refined by his descendants, especially his granddaughter Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira, affectionately known as “Ferreirinha” or “Ferreirinha‑da‑Régua” by the people of her region. Under Dona Antónia’s stewardship—who, twice widowed, led a major enterprise—Ferreira achieved remarkable success. Her entrepreneurial spirit taught her to anticipate, decide, create, teach, and love, making her a charismatic figure of great influence.
