Puente Austral & Maturana

Our wines’ identity owes much to the grape harvest at the right moment of maturity. We aim for fruit expressions with round tannins. We pick up the grapes during the early morning, so our grapes can be kept fresh during transit periods. We do not follow fashions or trends.

Neither we follow recipes: we just need good grapes, care, and love in the way of doing things. We don’t over-process or manipulate wines: we just let them rest and mature in oak barrels, giving our special touch.

Located in the southern sector of the great rappel valley, Colchagua valley is home to Puente Austral. Irrigated by the Tinguiririca River, the climate is temperate throughout the year, its maritime influence moderates the extreme temperatures.
