Viña Torres (Chile)
ヴィーニャ・トレス（チリ）
Chile's pioneering foreign winery, 100% organic since 2004.
Founded in 1979 in the Curicó Valley, Miguel Torres Chile (Viña Torres Chile) was the first foreign-owned winery established in Chile, launched by Spain's Familia Torres. The winery pioneered modern techniques such as stainless-steel temperature-controlled fermentation and French oak barrel aging in Chile, transforming the local industry. Today 100% of its estate vineyards are certified organic (since 2004), and the winery practices regenerative viticulture — cover crops, wildflower corridors, and rotational sheep grazing — while holding Fair Trade certification that guarantees fair wages for smallholder growers, including custodians of century-old País vines in Maule and Itata. Combining traditional European winemaking with Chile's diverse terroir across the Curicó, Maule, Limarí, Maipo, Itata, and Biobío valleys, the winery is recognized as a global leader in sustainable, terroir-driven winemaking.
