Full-bodied white wine, creamy mouthfeel and buttery oak aroma.
Casa Ferreirinha pioneered the quality revolution of Douro still wines, becoming the region's first producer dedicated to this style rather than Port.
Matthew Jukes, a wine critic, highly praised Casa Ferreirinha's wines in his "Unmissable Portuguese Holiday Wines" article: Vinha Grande 2019: Called "sublime" and "a stunner"

Pure aroma of fresh pears, creamy, chewy, with a salty-sour freshness. Textured by a slight grip, bone dry, becoming more chewy as it warms up in the glass. Should age well in the bottle.
Douro Branco refers to white wines from Portugal’s Douro Valley, a region best known for Port and red wines. These whites are typically blends of native grapes like Rabigato, Viosinho, Gouveio, and Arinto, offering bright acidity, minerality, and complex fruit flavors.
