Built by a family of winemakers from the Douro in 1751, Ferreira is the only Porto Wine company that has always remained Portuguese through all its history. Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira contributed significantly to the consolidation of the brand through her work to benefit the Douro region and its people. Facing the adversities of the 19thC, she became a symbol of strength still recognized today. Ferreira invites you to discover a brand with over 250 years of history, in a tour through the cellars where, since the 18thC, Porto Wine has aged in hundreds of wood casks and vats. In this guided tour, you will enjoy a visit through the cellars, the “D. Antónia Belongings Room" and the Museum, ending with a tasting of Vintage Porto, a superior quality wine.
