Description and Reviews:
An opportunity to purchase a rare 1952 Ferreira Vintage Port. These bottles have been stored in the cellar of the Ferreira Lodge at Vila Nova de Gaia in Porto since original bottling until VWP purchased them.

Each bottle is beautifully presented in a wooden case with a certificate of authenticity. The bottle forms part of the special collection of Ferreira Port Vintages celebrating extraordinary wines that stand the test of time. This wine has been stored for its entire life under ideal conditions (at temperatures between 12- 16C and a stable humidity of 70%) - a fundamental factor responsible for the preservation of this unique wine.

This is a unique gift. Only 12 bottles were released in 2022 for purchase outside the lodge - we are delighted to offer them exclusively from VWP.

The Ferreira family of winemakers started producing port under the same name in 1751. The grandchildren of the company founder, José Bernardo and António Bernardo Ferreira, bought additional land and enlarged the winery. The family business was consolidated through the marriage of António Bernardo Ferreira and Antónia Adelaide Ferreira , both cousins.

Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira, known as Ferreirinha ("little Ferreira"), was a widow at the age of 33 and took over the management of the company. She managed to consolidate and modernize the company. In addition, she also invested in infrastructure and social projects in the region of the winery. In 1987 the company AA Ferreira, SA was taken over by the spirits group Sogrape.
