El Principal Vineyard
Our vineyard takes its name from the Picunche chief Andetelmo, "The Chief," lord of the lands that today encompass our terroir, at the foot of the Andes Mountains in the Alto Maipo Valley. His visionary and peaceful nature earned him the respect of the Spanish conquistadors, giving rise to a history of openness and exchange that endures to this day. Today, the spirit of Andetelmo lives on in our wines, which express all the nobility and quality of a unique terroir.
