«What better way could we find to honor our Father and Grandfather, than to launch a wine in his honor CASA do VALLE HOMENAGEM. We received a difficult heritage from him, as he has always been distinguished for his work, dedication, and passion for wine and for a dynamism he has always maintained throughout his long life. His attitude and courage towards life and society are an example that we seek to follow with enthusiasm and dedication. Her children and grandchildren raise the glass of this wine in his honor, saying – thank you very much. »
