Casa Marin Winery: Pioneering Female Winemaker in Chile

Located in the charming village of Lo Abarca in the San Antonio Valley, just 4 km from the Pacific Ocean, Casa Marin is a trailblazer in the Chilean wine industry. Founded by Maria Luiz, the first female winery owner in Chile, this winery specializes in cool climate wines. With a commitment to quality, Casa Marin has gained international acclaim for its exceptional wines.

Maria's son, Felipe Marin, collaborates with her to produce premium wines that have earned numerous awards.

Proximity to the Ocean

The cool climate of Lo Abarca, influenced by its closeness to the ocean, is ideal for viticulture. The winery's 41 hectares of vineyards are situated on steep slopes, creating a unique terroir characterized by mineral-rich soils and low temperatures. With an average yield of just 4 tons per hectare, the grapes are concentrated, resulting in elegant wines with high acidity and low pH. Casa Marin cultivates a variety of grapes, including Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Gris, Syrah, Gewurztraminer, Riesling, and Garnacha, producing a diverse range of red, white, and rosé wines.

Commitment to Sustainability

Casa Marin is equipped with modern winemaking technology, including 31 stainless steel tanks with temperature sensors, a crushing machine, 240 new French oak barrels, and an automatic temperature control system. The winery prioritizes sustainable practices throughout the winemaking process. The result is premium wines that showcase the unique characteristics of the terroir and the expertise of the winemaking team.

A hidden gem. We had an excellent tour from Beatrice (B) who was super friendly and knowledgeable and spoke extremely good English. The tasting with snacks was also excellent. Delicious wines!! Also an incredible story about a female winemaker who preservered despite many odds to make exceptional wines.

It is the story of a vineyard, a winemaker and a fascinating hotel in a place close to the ocean and the sky with wines awarded as number one worldwide, worth knowing and visiting.

Beautiful day, good reception for the visit, although I feel that they gave us very little wine to try.

The wines are absolutely praiseworthy! We came to the winery on the recommendation of locals and it was worth it. The young lady in sales was super nice, explained everything perfectly and was able to provide information. The wines are of a very high standard, but the price/performance ratio is right!
