Almaviva

The partnership between Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Viña Concha y Toro SA introduced the concept of a “French-style château” to Chile for the first time and marked a key milestone in the growth of Chilean wines on the global market.

Today, Domaine Almaviva spans 60 hectares of vineyards, blending grape varieties typical of Bordeaux wines with those native to Chile. These include Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot.

Located in the heart of the Maipo Valley and the Puente Alto terroir, the vineyard produces high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon thanks to a climate well-suited to its cultivation. This grape variety is therefore always the dominant component in allAlmaviva vintages.

As for the wine’s aging process, it is aged in barrels for 10 months in a first cellar, then transferred to a second cellar where it remains for an additional 6 to 8 months before bottling.
