Montesecano’s philosophy is about as far as it is possible to be from the corporate mind-set which dominates much of the Chilean wine industry.

Farmed at altitude in Casablanca Valley wine region, with biodynamic preparations, the poetic whisper of the Pacific ocean in the vineyards and a production of a mere 2473 bottles , this is small scale even when compared to many of BBR’s prized Domaines in France.

Add to that the wonderful egg-shaped fermentation vats and the supervisory genius of André Ostertag and one is clearly in the presence of something very different and very special.
