REAL CAVE DO CEDRO

This history starts in 1951, when Aleixo Family started producing wine and selling it in bulk. Sales went well and there was a good demand for the wine, so wine bottling became part of the production process, which lead to the creation of the family’s first brand, launched in 1960: Aleixo.In the following decade, business developed, the second generation of the family took control and by 1971 new facilities were built, as part of an expansion plan. This action improved not only quantity but also quality, and by 1975 production capacity increased by 50% and several quality awards were granted.The third generation of the family joins the business in 1996 and a new modern winery is built. The business model evolved and its expansion had a boom by the end of the first decade, after a strong investment in Research & Development, which led to set exportation as its top priority in 2011.Since then, complementing this expansion, the company started to exhibit its wines world wide and in 2019 the company marks its presence in all major international wine and food fairs. SIAL Innovation selects the most innovative products and our wines obtained 4 awards.
