Considered a producer of some of the most elegant wines in Chile, Viña Aquitania is the result of an extraordinary vision born in 1984. It emerged from the partnership of legendary Bordeaux figures, such as Bruno Prats (Château Cos d’Estournel) and Paul Pontallier (Château Margaux), alongside renowned Chilean winemaker Felipe de Solminihac, with the objective of finding the perfect terroir in Chile.
Aquitania is a boutique winery located in the prestigious terroir of Peñalolén, in the Maipo Valley (Maipo Andes), at the foot of the mountains. From this vineyard comes Lázuli, one of its iconic wines, awarded multiple times as the best and most elegant Cabernet Sauvignon in the country.
Another fundamental milestone was its pioneering role in planting vines in Traiguén, a volcanic area in southern Chile. By expanding the viticultural frontiers, they helped create the D.O. Malleco Valley, the origin of SOLdeSOL Chardonnay. This wine marked a turning point for the quality standards of this variety in Chile, frequently recognized as the best in the country. Currently, the winery produces a Sauvignon Blanc and a Pinot Noir from this same area that are simply extraordinary.
Antiyal (Children of the Sun) is a small winery owned by winemaker Alvaro Espinoza and Family, founded in 1996. Alvaro is one of the most influential winemakers in the New World and has consulted on many wines for various wineries. He still consults several wineries.
The vineyard is located in the Maipo Valley, a place with great conditions for Bordeaux and Mediterranean grape varieties. We focus on creating wines the old-fashioned way, hand harvesting in small batches. We follow a low-intervention approach when managing the vineyards and when handling the fruit in the cellar. We age our wines in French oak barrels and concrete tanks. Our annual production stays around 40,000 bottles, 100 percent estate-grown, bottled, and labeled.
