Wine Description:
De Martino, an ultra-dynamic winery, controls numerous small plots of old vines across Chile's diverse wine regions. Founded in 1934 by Pietro de Martino, who left Italy to pursue his dream on the alluvial soils of the Isla de Maipo near Santiago, the winery found a Mediterranean climate reminiscent of Bordeaux. Today, the fourth generation of the De Martino family, Marco Antonio and Sebastián, spearhead the winery with a focus on revitalizing forgotten vineyards. Their 'Old Vine Project' began with a chance to rescue ancient, ungrafted vines in Maule, Cachapoal, and the Itata Valley. These vines, planted in the mid-20th century in a Spanish bush vine style without trellising, represent a legacy of bio-diverse, organic viticulture. The project uncovers the extraordinary potential of Chile's vinous heritage, turning previously overlooked grapes into distinctive wines and preserving a fascinating piece of the country’s wine history.
