Unique winery and winemaking facility, just 4 km. from the ocean

Both Casa Marin’s vineyards and winemaking facility are located in Lo Abarca, part of Chile’s fifth region, just 4 km. from the ocean. It’s here where a select process for making some of Chile’s most exclusive, quality wines is developed. It begins with terroir and then continues in the specially designed winemaking facility. You can visit the winery, take a tour and taste our wines throughout the year, by reservation.

Vineyards

Viña Casa Marín was established in the town of Lo Abarca, part of the San Antonio Valley and the fifth region. It is considered a radical area to plant grapevines because of the land’s characteristics. Thanks to these conditions and the creation of land divisions, or specific terroir blocks, the most exquisite icon and premium wines are produced here, both red and white. Casa Marín’s specialty is its fantastic Pinot Noir, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Sauvignon Gris, all cool-climate wines.

Winemaking Facility

María Luz Marín built her own winemaking facility during the years 2003 and 2004, in order to produce wines with special characteristics from a maximum of 50 hectares. Her facility was specially built for a boutique winery, which has the ideal space and temperature qualities that extract the pure flavor from the grapes and that guarantees production quality. Felipe Marín, María Luz’s son, is the winemaker and head of the production and work at the winery. The facility is colonial style with Chilean tiles made from clay and decorated with beautiful mosaics made by Patricia Marín, another family member. The building also has a wine shop, tasting room, wine cellar as well as a production and packaging area. Regarding winemaking, it has a total storage capacity of 200 tons and 180 thousand liters.

The winemaking facility is also equipped with the latest technology that permits superior quality wine production:
