Palhete Casa Ferreirinha Tinto

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 rooted in the quality of the wines sold, the novelty of its brands, and the presentation of its wines. Today led by the third generation of the founding family, Sogrape Vinhos increasingly fulfills the goal it set at its inception: to be a family‑run, internationally oriented company focused on producing quality wines, fostering innovation, and developing Portuguese brands of global stature. Sogrape Vinhos owns approximately 830 hectares of vineyards in Portugal. Casa Ferreirinha and its wines have become synonymous with time and art. This has been the case since its founding in the eighteenth century by Bernardo Ferreira, whose refined formula was later perfected by his 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 became a widow yet led a major enterprise, Ferreira rose admirably. Her entrepreneurial spirit taught her to anticipate, decide, create, teach, and love, making her a figure of great projection and charisma. (Illustrative image only)
