The Rucahue property was a wilderness when Jose (Pepe) Esturillo bought it in 1982. Laboriously he cleared the land and planted vines of the highest quality. Situated on the slopes of the Rucahue Range in the Maule Valley it is a wild and beautiful place and the Esturillos intervene as little as possible in the natural growth of the grapes. The consistent climate and high altitude produces healthy, fully ripe grapes and modern techniques ensure their full flavour is passed on to the wines.
