MILLAMAN | The Golden Condor

In the central zone of the Chilean Andes Mountains, inside an area called Sagrada Familia, is located the Peteroa volcano, surrounded by wild landscapes and semi frozen lakes. There, the locals say that they have seen on very rare occasions, flying in the air, a Condor, that in the light of the sunset over the mountains, look like its plumage is of golden and copper color.

The name Millaman comes from the language of the Chilean native people, the Mapuches, and means “Golden Condor”.

• José Canepa, an Italian immigrant, bought Hacienda El Condor in Peteroa in 1946, starting his dream of producing the best wines of the Curicó Valley. The Estate has 200 hectares.
• In 1998, the desire to expand and perpetuate the winemaking tradition with his 3 daughters led to the creation of a new winery based on the Hacienda, giving rise to Viña Millaman.
• Like our cellar, our main vineyards are located in the Curicó Valley. However, when producing our different wines, we also use grapes from our other estates located in other valleys, in order to obtain the best expression of each variety.
