About Villard
Established in 1989 by Thierry Villard as Chile’s first family premium boutique wine company. Over the last three decades, it has consistently been recognized as one of the best producers of the Casablanca Valley. Over the last decade, using the Valley’s exceptional terroir and unique characteristics, the new generation has introduced innovating winemaking techniques to create new premium wines of structure and elegance.
One of the prime areas for cool-climate grapes is the Casablanca valley, only 70 kilometers West of Santiago and less than 25 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean. The cold Humboldt Current runs off the coast, so the sea produces a cooling effect, with morning fog and low temperatures that are expressed in our wines with bright acidity and fresh fruity aromas.
They invite you to experience their sense of place, history and activity. Learn about the Casablanca Valley, their different vineyards and grape varieties, winemaking and aging while enjoying a tasting of award-winning wines, in a setting of great beauty and closeness to nature.
