Brandy Offley 5 Estrelas Velho (cork stopper)

Sogrape Vinhos was founded in 1942 by Fernando van Zeller Guedes, with the ambition of making Portuguese wines known to the world and a long-term vision based on the quality of the wines to be marketed, the importance of the novelty of the brands and the presentation of its wines. Today, led by the third generation of the founding family, Sogrape Vinhos is increasingly faithful to the goal it has had since it was founded: to be a family-owned company with an international vocation, focused on the production of quality wines, on innovation and on the development of global Portuguese brands. Sogrape Vinhos has about 830 hectares of vineyards in Portugal. Offley, founded in London in 1737 by William Offley, initially as a wine trading house, Offley quickly began to export wines and later to produce its own Port Wine, giving the brand worldwide recognition as a producer of high quality wines. The decisive moment for the projection of the company was when Joseph James Forrester joined as a partner. The Baron of Forrester, as he was known, played a fundamental role in the growth of the international Port Wine trade and was the first person to map the river and the Douro valley, which earned him recognition and entry into various European Geography and Arts societies.
