History
José Maria da Fonseca started the business in 1834, and the family has maintained it since then. José Maria da Fonseca invests in research and production methods, allying modern techniques with traditional methods. For example, the José de Sousa Winery in the Alentejo town of Reguengos de Monsaraz, combines the ancient Roman tradition of fermenting wine in clay pots with the latest technology. The vineyard is 700 hectares.
