Description
The Casablanca Valley is located in the V Region of Chile, between the Coastal Mountain Range and the Pacific Ocean, exactly one hour from Santiago and half an hour from Valparaíso. It is crossed by the highway "Ruta 68" that connects both cities.
It is recognized as the best valley in Chile for growing and producing white wines, especially Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, as well as cool-climate reds such as Pinot Noir, Syrah, Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc.
Being a relatively young valley, all its vineyards have the latest technology and the main objective of all winemakers in the area is the care of one of the most important resources for life, water. For this reason all the vineyards in the valley have drip irrigation systems.
The total area of the valley is 22,000 hectares and the planted area is 5,800 hectares. It has a frost control system and 8 weather stations. It has a warm temperate climate with an average temperature of 14°C (57°F).
