Augeo

Augeo comes from Latin. It is the present infinitive of the verb augēre, which means to grow, to increase, to develop, but also to honor.

Our wine is a reflection of its name, as the meaning marks a beginning and outlines a horizon and perspective for development, while simultaneously showing respect and honor to our ancestors and our land.
