VIÑA MONTGRAS, a leading wine producer from Chile’s Colchagua Valley, was established in the early 1990s by brothers Hernán and Eduardo Gras, together with their business partner Cristián Hartwig, with the goal of producing estate-grown Chilean wines of exceptional quality and originality. Santiago Margozzini serves as head winemaker, with renowned California winemaker Paul Hobbs acting as consultant.

Colchagua Valley, a serene sub-valley of Rapel, is situated in Chile’s Central Region at the heart of the country’s premier wine-producing zone. Nestled between the Pacific Coastal Range to the west and the snow-capped Andes to the east, this rustic valley is a protected environment with positive maritime influences that foster a terroir ideal for the production of top-quality wines.

The first MontGras vineyards were planted in 1993 with clones from the oldest vineyards in the region and from overseas. Today, the three founding partners have over 150 hectares (370 acres) planted to vine.
