When Agustin Huneeus founded his vineyard in Chile’s Casablanca Valley in 1990 he was among the first to foresee the terroir’s remarkable potential to produce world-class wines. Today, his vision is paying off with the creation of Ritual Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc – hand crafted estate wines that showcase what Chile’s finest cool-climate appellation has to offer.
Creating Ritual was a labor of love for Huneeus, and he continues to refine and innovate, now with the help of a new winemaker, Rodrigo Soto. The Casablanca Valley’s similarity to the Sonoma Coast of California is now often cited by wine experts, so it only makes sense to bring together a winemaking team with plenty of experience working in both California and Chile.
