Sociedade Agrícola Casal de Ventozela is a family Vinho Verde producer at Mogege, Vila Nova de Famalicão, in the Vale do Ave sub-region. The historic quinta, documented since 1874, was bought in 1978 by José Ferreira Cortinhas, the company was formed in 1983 and its first single-variety wine, an Espadeiro 2007, was bottled in 2008. Its Vento’z Alvarinho two-litre box has held a place in Systembolaget’s fixed assortment since September 2020 (art. 605207, SEK 199), and a Vento’z Rosé 2025 followed in the temporary range on 29 May 2026, both via importer Vinunic AB.
Casal de Ventozela takes its name from a quinta at Mogege, Vila Nova de Famalicão, whose records go back to 1874. José Ferreira Cortinhas bought the property in 1978 and spent the following decade replanting it; the company was formed in 1983 and today farms around 45 hectares of vineyard in the Vale do Ave, the southern Vinho Verde sub-region between Braga and Porto. Loureiro, Arinto and Trajadura are the core varieties, with Alvarinho and the red Espadeiro grape used for the single-variety wines that the house began bottling in 2008.
The company’s documented Nordic channel is Sweden. Its Vento’z Alvarinho two-litre bag-in-box has held a slot in Systembolaget’s fixed assortment since 1 September 2020 (article 605207, SEK 199), one of the few Portuguese boxed wines in the monopoly’s permanent range, and on 29 May 2026 a Vento’z Rosé 2025 was added to the temporary assortment (article 9274501, SEK 125). Both are imported by Vinunic AB, the Stockholm importer that also carries Quinta do Portal and the Anselmo Mendes Contacto wines; NorthSouth HQ’s 12 September 2026 read of the Systembolaget database confirms both listings.
Six years in the fixed range for a boxed Alvarinho shows how Vinho Verde has moved from novelty to everyday white in Sweden, where the two-litre box is the volume format. The 2026 rosé launch on the same importer is the classic monopoly playbook: use the permanent listing as a base and add temporary releases to widen the brand.
