Domaines Barons de Rothschild, Le Dix de Los Vascos

Area:

Viña Los Vascos is located in the Central valley of Chile, in the Colchagua region, between the Andes and the Coastal Mountain Range, 200 km south of Santiago.
Surrounded by mountains at the foot of Mount Cañeten, the property covers 3,600 hectares, 640 of which are planted with vines, making it one of the largest wineries in the region. 
Located 150 m above sea level and only 40 km from the coast, the vineyard benefits from the cooling influence of the Pacific Ocean. This particular location between two major climatic influences – the cooling Pacific Ocean to the west and the Andes to the east – creates a microclimate with a strong contrast between hot, dry days and cool, wet nights.

Producer:

Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite were one of the first European families to purchase a vineyard in this area of Chile, when they bought Los Vasco in 1988. Viticulture has been present in this lush valley since the early 18th century. With a portfolio of estates (the most famous being Chateau Lafite Rothschild) DBR are committed to excellence through out.
