Dona Isabel and Field Bugres two villages were founded in Rio Grande do Sul by Italian immigrants and now are
cities of Caxias do Sul and Bento Gonçalves. It is no coincidence that the first laboratory dedicated to
research on the wine emerged in these two cities, strongholds of the Italian traditions of manufacture of the drink. In the mid
twentieth century, the major wineries are opened in the country: Monaco, the Dreher, Armando Peterlongo Company and Rio
Grandense.Comparada to European traditions, the wine manufacturing in Brazil is still early. The first cooperative to benefit
viniculture was the Cooperativa Agrícola de Caxias, created at the beginning of the century. After it emerged Aurora and Garibaldi,
today the country's largest.
