Ferreira Dona Antonia Moscatel Porto Porto

Description

Established in 1751, Ferreira has long been synonymous with high‑quality Portuguese wine. Its story runs alongside the evolution of the Demarcated Douro Region, set in 1756, and its Port and still wines. Decades later, the family business was steered by 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 launched notable social‑assistance initiatives in the area. After her death the company became a limited partnership and entered a new expansion phase, always upholding its core values. Those values have carried Ferreira to the present day and were key to creating iconic wines such as the legendary Barca Velha of the 1950s. Since 1987, under Sogrape Vinhos’ management, it has led the national Port market and continues to showcase prestigious labels such as Quinta da Leda. The bottling year may not match the image shown.
