Everything began over six generations ago in 1834, with an act
of irreverence and audacity from our founder. For some, it may
have seemed like a thoughtless act. but for us in the family it was the
first step of a visionary. Families are like that, they believe in us.
Since then, much has happened.
We went from being in just one region to the whole country,
but before that, we had already been around the world. There
were acquisitions, sales, mergers, wars, crisis and mistakes.
Learnings and more mistakes. Improvements and growth.
Always as a Family. But something always remained the same.
And even became stronger. Our values.
This is what lasts through time and this is what us, as a family,
will not live without. The perseverance, the will to do more, to
create something new, to never forget our past.
We are already in the eight generation, who inspireus in our
new creations. In ways of reaching farther. A Family of wines
from different regions, different segments, but produced with
the same care and passion.
And this is why it doesn't make sense for us to only talk about
varieties, awards, history, authenticity or quality. Two centuries
take at least 200 more years to build. For us it makes sense that,
as a family of wines, we offer wines for the families. For you, for
everyone, a whole family, unique and different. We hope you
continue to be a part of our family and a part of our history.
Thank You.
