More about the winery
Viña Carmen is Chile’s first winery, founded in 1850, but also one of the most forward-thinking and contemporary in its wine style. The name comes from the original founder’s wife but it is perhaps serendipitous that almost 150 years later Carmenére was first discovered in their vineyards, becoming an emblematic variety not only for Carmen but Chile ever since. Carmen winery produces a huge range of varieties today though, including top Cabernet Sauvignon (Gold is an emerging icon), fantastic old vine Semillon, juicy Cinsault, racy Sauvignon Blanc and, of course, spicy Carmenere. Young winemaker Emily Faulconer is one of the most exciting of her generation, and oversees all the ranges from their easy-to-drink everyday lines up to top level premium wines from all over Chile’s main valleys.
