Geisse Winery was established in 1979 by Mario Geisse, a Chilean who came to Brazil in 1976 contracted to direct the unit of Moet & Chandon in Brazil. Mario settled in the scenic area known as Pinto Bandeira in the Vinhos de Montanha ( Wine Mountains ), to the south of Bento Gonēalves. The site sits at an average 800m altitude, is well drained and enjoys plenty of sun in other words, near perfect for small scale sparkling wine production.
Mario Geisse and his son Daniel focus on producing just two noble grape varieties: pinot noir and chardonnay. This disciplined approach, coupled with a refusal to chase volume production, are characteristic of their quality-driven business.
