The story of LAFerraz is once again painted in gold, and this time with a triple reward. It is with immense pride that we share that our Souvall range has won three Gold Medals at the prestigious Trás-os-Montes Edition 2026 of the Portugal Wine Trophy, one of the most important and rigorous international wine competitions in the world, held under the exclusive patronage of the OIV (International Organisation of Vine and Wine) and the UIOE (International Union of Oenologists).
In this 2026 edition, the event gathered a panel of 90 international judges on national soil, who evaluated, in a blind tasting, more than 2,200 references from 29 countries. Faced with such an expressive global competition, seeing the rigor of our work doubly validated by world experts reinforces the premium positioning we seek for our wines.
This prestigious international recognition rewards the consistency, family devotion, and unique identity that we place in every single bottle cultivated in our granitic soils, under the influence of the altitude and the mountain character of Beira Interior.
The Three Souvall Gold References:
- Souvall Seara Branco (2023): A harmonious blend that combines indigenous grape varieties such as Gouveio, Rabigato, Fernão Pires, Síria, and Arinto. It reveals a crystalline freshness and a vibrant acidity that captivated the international jury.
- Souvall Reserva Branco (2024): Born from the meticulous combination of Rabigato, Síria, and Arinto. It displays an elegance, complexity, and noble structure that raises the standards of altitude wines in our region.
- Souvall Villamayor Branco (2023): An edition of pure excellence and exclusivity, where Fernão Pires, Síria, and Viosinho unite to express the mineral character and uniqueness that only our terroir can provide.
This triple gold in the 2026 edition consecrates the timeless commitment of the Ferraz family to authenticity and excellence. A special thank you to everyone who follows our journey and shares the passion for wine with us.
