Producer notes ~ "Backed by a history rooted in winemaking culture in Spain, Miguel Torres Chile arrived in the Curicó Valley in 1979 after searching for a new location. On this journey, as well as finding excellent climatic conditions, the family has committed to innovating in wine production, incorporating stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels. Today, Miguel Torres Chile also focuses its commitment on organic vine-growing and Fair Trade certification for various wines. These advances have helped the company to become more sustainable, and to implement several sustainable projects. The company has worked to recover traditional varieties almost forgotten in Chile, such as País, Carignan, and Muscat, using small suppliers from rainfed areas. Cordillera Carignan, Estelado Rosé, Reserva de Pueblo, and Días de Verano are among the products associated with this kind of project."
