Casa da Passarella A Descoberta White
The mystery of the box found inside one of the walls of Casa da Passarella is finally solved. The story begins in 1942, when a box is hidden in one of the rooms of Casa da Passarella, containing a handwritten document with instructions to be opened 50 years later. The document also contained a last will: that all the values
stored in the box should be distributed ny the poor. The truth is that neither of these things happened. Only in 2010, when the Gouse suffered works, the box was found and opened. And there was nothing inside. The investigations went forward, without ever having unraveled the mystery. When resignation seemed to overcome persistence, a specialist in the unusual was called to the scene: " the box was indeed replete," explained Professor K.Noronha, "but not tangible, material things, an extraordinary essence that, reacting with the times to come, would bring happiness through wine to all who made art and profit. "Now, these times are already part of the present, and this is a double discovery". From the Dão region, Casa da Passarella A Descoberta White Wine has a rosemary aroma, saved with citrus fruits.
