The De Martino family has been producing wine in Chile's famous Maipo Valley for almost 70 years. The wines reflect the area’s terroir resulting in big rich extracted flavor. Delicate use of oak adds complexity but the strength of De Martino wines is in their fruit. These wines are concentrated and elegant each with a distinctive personality. The winery has received a flurry of recognition from Chile’s most prestigious wine guide. The 2004 Guia de Vinos de Chile singled out De Martino winemaker Marcelo Retamal as Winemaker of the Year and named the Legado Sauvignon Blanc Legado Carmenere and Gran Familia Cabernet Sauvignon as the top wines in their categories.

The organically farmed grapes are sourced from an ungrafted, head-pruned vineyard.

Fermented destemmed in terracotta amphorae for 15 days—then kept there for the winter and spring, and bottled unfiltered after malolactic with just a little sulphur.
