Vinos Don Memo

The winery

Vinos Don Memo is the brand of Guillermo Muñoz Moraga, a winegrower from Portezuelo, in the province of Itata. He is one of the 50 small producers in the Viñas Revalorizadas del Valle del Itata catalog, which the Universidad del Bío-Bío published in 2024 with information supplied by each winery, and he appears there in the bottled-wine category. That is nearly everything that has been published about the winery: no website or social media accounts are known.

According to that catalog, his vineyard has century-old vines of País, Cinsault and Moscatel de Alejandría, from which he makes red and white wines. Portezuelo is a municipality of gentle hills and a warm temperate climate, with four to five dry months and winter rains; its soils are clay toward the interior and sandy near the Itata River. The vineyard's location, its size and the current wines and prices are not published.

The way to get to know these wines is the wine shop at Almirante Latorre 455, in the town of Portezuelo. No hours or visits are published, and the only evidence that it exists is the 2024 catalog, so call +56 9 9668 2655 before you go.
