Grapes for wine have been produced at Los Vascos since the mid-eighteenth century. Today’s vines are the product of the selective multiplication of plants originally brought from pre-phyloxera 19th Century from France. The vision of Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) to expand their estates, took them to South America in 1988, becoming the first French viticultural investment in modern Chile. Los Vascos was chosen after a careful review of existing vineyards, their soils and climates. Since then, a comprehensive modernisation and investment program has been undertaken, oriented towards the production of fine wine using and adapting the vitivinicultural experiences of Bordeaux and other areas where the group is present. After some experiments with other grape varieties planted generations ago, the property currently produces almost entirely Cabernet Sauvignon (95% if the area planted) and some white varietals such as Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
