Casa de Cello
Casa de Cello is a family business that has dedicated itself to the production of wine from its own vineyards for four generations.
It was in the 1980s that one of the owners, João Pedro Araujo, began to professionalize the activity of Casa de Cello. He reorganized the existing structure with the aim of implementing the best wine and oenological technologies, in order to enhance the expression of their terroirs in the wines.
