Vineyards
Peumo, D.O. Peumo, Cachapoal Valley
Covering an area of 484.74 hectares, the soils in Peumo are of the clay-loam type, deep alluvial soils associated with riverbanks. The climate is Mediterranean with a prolonged dry season, without extreme temperatures, featuring warm days and mild nights, moderated by the influence of the Cachapoal River and Lake Rapel. Main grape varieties planted: Carménère.

El Mariscal, D.O. Puente Alto, Maipo Valley
This vineyard spans 52.95 hectares and has alluvial origin soils, rocky and poor in nutrients, with great permeability due to the presence of gravels in the subsoil, allowing for excellent drainage. The climate is Mediterranean semi-arid with a strong influence of the Andes Mountain Range. It is the coldest part of the Maipo Valley, and its marked daily thermal fluctuation, around 18 °C, extends the ripening of the grapes, concentrating and intensifying their aromas. Main grape varieties planted: Cabernet Sauvignon.

Quebrada Seca, D.O. Limarí, Limarí Valley
With an extension of 65 hectares, the soils in Quebrada Seca are of coluvial origin, with ferruginous red clay and a significant amount of calcium carbonate. The climate is semi-arid coastal. Main grape varieties planted: Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
