Our Specialties Carignan - Dry Farming 2008 comes from Cauquenes, where the vineyards are more than 80 years old.

In the palate is complex, with round tannins and well balanced acidity. It is fresh, with elegant and persistent finish.

The Specialties Sauvignon Blanc - Ocean Side 2009 is from our vineyards in San Antonio coastal area located in the central coast of Chilean Pacific Ocean.
