Viñedos Orgánicos Emiliana

The winery

Viñedos Emiliana was born in 1986 from a spin-off of Viña Concha y Toro and is now controlled by the Guilisasti Gana and Larraín Vial families. In the late 1990s, with winemaker Álvaro Espinoza, it began converting its farms to organic and biodynamic agriculture, and in 2026 it adopted the name Viñedos Orgánicos Emiliana. It has vineyards in six valleys, from Limarí to Biobío; its best-known wines, Gê and Coyam, come from Fundo Los Robles, in Colchagua, a working farm that is not open to the public. The gateway for anyone who wants to get to know the winery is this estate in Casablanca, on the north side of Ruta 68, at kilometer 60.7.

The property sits in the La Vinilla area, at the foot of the Cordillera de la Costa and about 370 meters above sea level. Of its roughly 97 hectares, some 79 are planted with producing vines; the rest is natural vegetation, a small olive grove and other uses. The cold Pacific breeze and the deep, sandy-loam granitic soils favor slow ripening, and the grapes grown here are Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Viognier, Marsanne, Pinot Noir and Syrah. From this area come the sparkling Amaluna Brut, of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the Salvaje Syrah Roussanne, the Signos de Origen Syrah and the rosé Tais, from Pinot Noir. No wine is made in Casablanca: the grapes travel to the cellars Emiliana runs in Ovalle and in Colchagua. Between the rows live animals, an organic vegetable garden and the area where the biodynamic preparations are made.

Visits run Tuesday to Saturday, departing at 10:30, 12:30 and 14:30. The Tour Degustación Orgánico takes in the vineyard, the vegetable garden and the animals and ends with four wines; the Tour Gê adds high-end wines and closes with the house icon. There is also a workshop where you build your own blend and take the bottle home, a picnic for two among the vines, and a package combining the Tour Gê with the picnic. Everything is booked through the online shop, choosing a date and language (Spanish or English). The wine shop, with a bar serving wine by the glass, opens Tuesday to Saturday from 9:00 to 17:00, and from December to March on Mondays too. There is no restaurant: the only food is the picnic, which must be booked. For inquiries, the winery answers at wineshop@emiliana.cl and on +56 9 9327 4019.
