Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande Tinto

Description

Sogrape Vinhos was founded in 1942 by Fernando van Zeller Guedes with the ambition of introducing Portuguese wines to the world and a long‑term vision grounded in the quality of the wines they sell, the novelty of their brands, and the presentation of their products. Today led by the third generation of the founding family, Sogrape Vinhos increasingly fulfills the goal set at its inception: to be a family‑run company with an international focus, dedicated to producing quality wines, fostering innovation, and developing globally‑recognised Portuguese brands. The company owns roughly 830 hectares of vineyards across Portugal. Casa Ferreirinha and its wines have long been synonymous with time and artistry. Since its founding in the 18th century by Bernardo Ferreira, the refined formula has been carried on by descendants, especially his granddaughter Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira, affectionately known as “Ferreirinha” or “Ferreirinha‑da‑Régua” by the people of her homeland. Through Dona Antónia’s hands—who, twice widowed, steered a large enterprise—Ferreira achieved admirable consolidation. Her entrepreneurial spirit taught her to anticipate, decide, create, teach, and love, making her a figure of great projection and charisma.
