ORGANIC WINES FROM THE MAIPO VALLEY
Nuevo Mundo pays homage to a unique terroir in the heart of Maipo, and its singular nature, framed by the entrance to the De Martino’s estate in Isla de Maipo, and the majestic Lonquén hill in the distance.
THE PRODUCER
Since we settled in Isla de Maipo in the prestigious Maipo Valley in 1934, our family has specialized in producing wines that are notable for their sense of place, purity and balance. Nuevo Mundo pays tribute to this beautiful corner of Chile and our exceptional vineyard, which has become our home. We have carefully farmed our vines under organic principles so that the wines truly represent the terroir and its varieties.
THE ORIGIN
Isla de Maipo has a tradition of producing great wines. Its unique location, equidistant between the Andes Mountain Range and the Pacific Ocean, defines our terroir. It is located on the bed of a former branch of the River Maipo and this has given us perfect soil for growing Bordeaux varieties.
Climate: The climate is temperate Mediterranean with sea breezes that cool the vineyard and generate morning fog during the warmest months. This allows the grapes to ripen while developing moderate potential alcohol levels and retaining fresh acidity.
Soil: Alluvial with abundant gravel.

ORGANIC VITICULTURE
We have been practicing organic viticulture since 1997, and have been certified since 2001.
