Almaviva winery began in 1997 when the Baroness Philippine de Rothschild recognized the potential of Chilean terroir and entered into an agreement with Don Eduardo Guilisasti Tagle, Chairman of Concha y Toro, a premier Chilean producer.
I had the very good fortune of travelling to Chile recently and to visit many vineyards, meet several winemakers and other winery personnel and to taste a selection of Chile's many and varied wines.
