Adega Cooperativa de Sabrosa is a wine cooperative
that was founded in 1958 in Sabrosa, a Portuguese
village in the district of Vila Real.
Similarly to so many other wine cooperatives in the
Douro Region, the Adega Cooperativa de Sabrosa
started with a group of small and medium-sized wine
growers who used to produce their own wine at their
own wineries and “lagares” (a traditional wine press);
each wine grower individually would then try to find
a buyer for their wine.
Unity is strength and over the years the Adega
Cooperativa de Sabrosa obtained more and more
scale of production, therefore turning the page and
changing the course of things. Presently, it has over
600 members and produces the famous Fernão de
Magalhães (a tribute to the Portuguese explorer,
born in Sabrosa, who led the first expedition to
circumnavigate the world).
