Our Winemaker
FRANCISCA PALACIOS
Agronomist-oenologist with a degree from the Universidad de Chile. Despite her young age, she has a vast amount of work experience thanks to her time spent at various wineries in Chile and around the world. She first arrived at our vineyard for the 2016 harvest, and has since become a part of our team. A nature and biodynamic lover, she looks to portray in the wines each detail that the land imparts, with a pronounced style of fruit and freshness.
Our Winery
Our unique gravity-flow winery was designed by Laurence Odfjell, the son of the winery’s founder, and marked a turning point in the architecture of Chilean wineries.
Our winery was the first in South America to employ a gravity-flow system to ensure the gentle handling of the fruit throughout the winemaking processes. The winery is situated on a slope above the vineyards and over 60% of the winery is under ground. This subterranean environment achieves naturally low and stable temperatures for storage.
