Viña Casalibre, Cabernet Franc De Otro Planeta Valle del Maipo 2021

We value the small growers.

We believe that nobody is better than someone who has cultivated their land for decades to understand the vineyard and know what should be done at every time of the year.

In a country as vast as Chile, with its immense diversity of climates and landscapes, why look at only one vineyard, one valley?

We want to explore the country, working with carefully selected growers, and make single vineyard wines that represent that diversity.

We rely on the value of terroir, authenticity, diversity.

We do not seek to make the “best wine” – we don’t even believe that there is the perfect wine – we make wines that expresses their origin, without makeup.

We’re curious, but we respect the past. In a world where time is money, where efficiency is sought and costs reduced, we want to make wines where origin, fruit and soil are the protagonist, patiently and without haste.

We think the less intervention, the better. Less extraction, less wood, everything to achieve authentic products, with soul.
