About the Winery

Known for producing authentic Portuguese wines, Porto Ferreira is a wine label that was established in 1751. Though the company’s founder already had vineyards in the Douro Demarcated region, his grandchildren were the ones who managed to make these wines highly popular. Jose Bernardo and Antonio Bernardo, along with the future generations expanded the company further.

Sogrape Vinhos got a huge fillip in 1987, when it acquired the secular Ferreira Label. Thanks to this acquisition, Sogrape could dominate the Portuguese wine market easily. With Ferreira’s rich heritage and legacy, Sogrape’s portfolio of creating diverse wines improved considerably. Though it has been over 25o years since Ferreira’s birth today, it is still known as the face of the Portuguese wine industry, as it produces authentic and stylish Port wines with utmost grace and elegance.
