Ferreira Lacrima Christi Velha Porto Porto

Description

Referenced since 1751, Ferreira has always been a synonym for high‑quality Portuguese wine. Its story is intertwined with the evolution of the Demarcated Region of the Douro, defined in 1756, and with its Port wines and dry wines. Years later, the family business was taken over by 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‑aid 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. Those values have carried Ferreira to the present day 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 continues to showcase prestigious wine brands such as Quinta da Leda.
