Description

Matetic vineyards embody the pioneering spirit and vision of modern Chilean winemaking. This biodynamic project was founded in 1999 by the Matetic family, originally Croatian settlers who arrived in Chilean Patagonia in 1892. Having established themselves as farmers with extensive landholdings, the fourth generation of the family turned their attention to grapes. Confident of the climate and soils attributes in the coastal El Rosario Valley of San Antonio, they planted 120 hectares of vines and now farm 160 hectares of coastal biodynamic vineyard. The Corallilo range forms the entry-level: expressive, fruit-forward wines that showcase the varietal purity possible in this coastal terroir.

Matetic

Matetic is nestled in the San Antonio Valley of Chile, and celebrated for its exceptional biodynamic wines. Established in 1999 by the Matetic family, the estate focuses on sustainable viticulture and minimal intervention winemaking. Matetic cultivates a variety of grapes, including Syrah, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc, producing wines that reflect the unique coastal terroir. Their wines are renowned for their elegance, complexity, and vibrant acidity.

Colchagua Valley

The Colchagua Valley, nestled within Chile’s larger Rapel Valley, is one of the country’s most prestigious wine regions, celebrated for its bold, sun-drenched red wines. Sheltered between the Andes and the Coastal Range, this valley benefits from a Mediterranean climate with warm days and cool nights, ideal for producing ripe yet balanced fruit. Colchagua is particularly renowned for its rich, full-bodied expressions of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, Syrah, and Malbec, though elegant whites from higher-altitude sites are also gaining attention. A mix of modern winemaking and deep-rooted tradition, the region is home to both historic estates and innovative boutique producers, all working to capture the valley’s diverse terroirs. With its consistent quality and dynamic character, Colchagua Valley continues to be a cornerstone of Chilean fine wine.
