Description

With the aim of paying homage to the historical past of this place and its wines, this special edition was born, from a blend of indigenous Dão grape varieties, to commemorate the 125 years of Casa da Passarella.

This is a producer that has risen from the ashes. It came to stay and write a new story, but the history of this house is old, dating back to the 19th century, when it was built. Great wines were born from this house and these vineyards. Who doesn't remember the P63, vinified at the time by José Maria da Fonseca.

As fate would have it, it was "abandoned" to the world of wine, leaving only a faint memory of the great wines that were born there. Fate also decided that the new owner would be people of good taste, with extreme dedication to doing things well.

Thus was born the new Casa da Passarella, to write a new chapter in the history of this house and in the Dão region. The wines are excellent and made with rigour and a lot of will to do the best.
