written by Agustina Abal

Massoc Frères winery was established in 2015 by renowned Chilean winemaker François Massoc, his wife Noëlle and his brother Jean-Paul. This family winery has at its heart the old vines and growers of Itata and Bio Bio, focused entirely on working with small growers who care for centenarian vineyards.

About Massoc Frères winery

Founded in 2015, Massoc Frères as a project has always been guided by the family’s affection for their Chilean and French roots, their faith in the Itata and Bio Bio valleys, and their desire to produce excellent wines from the old vines of southern Chile.

In 2017, the family bought an old winery located on the slopes of Cerro Cayumanqui, in the municipality of Quillón in Itata and restored it to adapt it to their small-scale winemaking style. All the Massoc Frères wines are made, aged and bottled on the estate.

Massoc Frères is part of the Chileno Sur association in southern Chile.
