Villa Casa Marin is a family-owned winery and guest retreat located in the San Antonio appellation, only 4 kms from the coast. It is currently Chile's closest vineyard to the Pacific Ocean. It was founded in 2000 by Maria Luz Marin, winemaker and entrepreneur, whose goal of providing innovation to the local wine industry is being accomplished by her focus on premium wines which are a reality with the new "terroir".
The Vineyards It has been described as one of the most daring and innovative vineyards in the country. Surrounded by the steep hills of the Chilean coastal mountains, the unique micro climate and wide variety of soils found here give birth to a "terroir" recently discovered for the viticulture of fine wines. The first 25 hectares were planted with Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Savignon Gris, Gewurztraminer and Riesling. Chilean and British winemakers comprise a dedicated team who have contributed their know-how to the production of truly outstanding wines.
