Kingston winery and vineyard estate in Casablanca is owned by the fifth generation of Kingston family since Carl Kingston first came to Chile from the US on a hunt for gold in the early 1900s.
Almost a century later, it is now a 140 hectare vineyard where they produce and sell grapes, and focus on making their own small production of wine. The portfolio consists of Pinot Noir, Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc – three classic varieties in the cool, coastal Casablanca region.
