Welcome to Chile Wine Broker
Chilean Wine, Through a Specialist’s Perspective
Discovering Chile Through País, Carménère & Cabernet Sauvignon
Chile Wine Broker specializes in the discovery, selection, and international development of distinctive Chilean wines, with a particular focus on three varieties that tell different and complementary stories of Chilean wine: País (Mission), Carménère, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
From the heritage of centuries-old País vineyards to the remarkable rediscovery of Carménère and the international recognition of Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon, these varieties reflect Chile’s history, terroir, and evolution as a world-class wine country.
About us
A Specialist in Chilean Wine
Chile Wine Broker is an independent wine consultancy and brokerage based in Chile, specializing in the discovery and international development of distinctive Chilean wines.
Our particular focus is on three varieties that represent different chapters of Chile’s wine identity: País (Mission), Carménère, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
País (Mission) represents the heritage of Chilean viticulture, with old and heritage vineyards preserving one of the country’s most historic grape varieties.
Carménère represents Chile’s modern wine identity — a variety rediscovered in Chile and now recognized around the world as one of the country’s signature grapes.
Cabernet Sauvignon represents Chile’s international reputation, producing wines with structure, elegance, and a distinctive expression of Chilean terroir.
We look beyond volume and mass-market wines. Our interest lies in boutique and signature wines, selected for their character, authenticity, provenance, and ability to express a distinctive sense of place.
Our approach combines wine knowledge, international market experience, and a deep understanding of the cultural and gastronomic context of different markets.
Our Philosophy
Selection before volume.
Character before fashion.
Origin before mass production.
We believe that the right Chilean wine is not simply a product to be exported. It is an expression of its vineyard, variety, terroir, and people — and should be introduced to the right market with the right story.
THE WINES WE SEEK
Three Varieties. Three Expressions of Chile.
PAÍS (MISSION)
Chile’s Heritage Grape
País is one of the oldest grape varieties planted in Chile and an essential part of the country’s viticultural heritage.
Our interest lies particularly in old and heritage País vineyards, where low yields, dry-farmed vines, and traditional vineyard practices can produce wines with remarkable character, freshness, and sense of place.
CARMÉNÈRE
Chile’s Signature Grape
Rediscovered in Chile in the 1990s, Carménère has become one of the varieties most closely associated with Chilean wine.
We seek elegant and distinctive expressions that reveal Carménère’s characteristic fruit, spice, texture, and Chilean terroir — from refined, approachable wines to more complex signature bottlings.
CABERNET SAUVIGNON
Chile’s International Classic
Cabernet Sauvignon is one of Chile’s most internationally recognized varieties and has a long history of producing outstanding wines, particularly in the country’s leading traditional wine regions.
Our focus is on selected expressions that combine structure, elegance, balance, and a clear sense of Chilean origin.
Valleys
Maipo Valley Coast
The soils are stony and mineral, with warm, dry days during spring and summer, allowing for the production of grapes with great aromatic expression, soft tannins, and abundant freshness.
OUR APPROACH
Boutique Wines
Limited-production wines made with a strong sense of origin and a distinctive winemaking approach.
Signature Wines
Wines that express the personality and vision of their vineyard and winemaker, offering something distinctive beyond the conventional.
Our selection is not defined by volume. It is defined by character.
Itata Valley
País (Mission) Chile’s historic home of old País vineyards, where heritage vines produce wines of character, freshness, and a strong sense of place.
Colchagua & Cachapoal Valleys
Carménère Two of Chile’s leading Carménère regions, producing expressive wines with ripe fruit, spice, texture, and distinctive terroir.
Maipo Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon Chile’s most internationally recognized Cabernet region, known for structured, elegant wines with depth and ageing potential.
