Caves da Montanha, A. Henriques, S.A. is a Bairrada producer founded in 1943 at Anadia (Rua Adriano Henriques 12), making sparkling wines, still wines, liqueurs, aguardentes, spirits and bottled water. In Sweden its Montanha Baga 2021 is listed in Systembolaget’s order range through Preuss International AB (art. 281801, SEK 160, since September 2022).
Caves da Montanha was founded in 1943 in the heart of the Bairrada and remains a family-named company, Caves da Montanha, A. Henriques, S.A., based on Rua Adriano Henriques in Anadia, the region’s sparkling-wine capital. Its range is broader than most Bairrada houses: traditional-method sparkling wines, still reds and whites from Baga and the region’s white varieties, liqueurs, aguardentes and other spirits, and bottled waters, sold in Portugal through its own shop and distribution.
The company’s Nordic listing is in Sweden. Systembolaget’s product database records Montanha Baga 2021 (art. 281801, SEK 160) as a Caves da Montanha wine in the order range since 1 September 2022, imported by Preuss International AB. Baga, Bairrada’s signature red grape, is a rare sight on the Swedish monopoly’s shelves, which makes the listing a small but distinct piece of Portuguese representation in the market.
Bairrada sparkling and Baga reds are a niche in the Nordics compared with Douro and Alentejo, and the producers that carry the region there are few. Caves da Montanha’s eighty-year history, its unusually wide product range and a verified Systembolaget position give it a base from which the region’s sparkling wines — the category Anadia is known for — could follow into the same channel.
