Palo Alto

The thorny trees that grow on the hills of the Maule Valley are called Palo Alto in the region. For 22 years, Héctor Urzúa, the winemaker at Palo Alto, searched for the best spots of land to grow his wines on. Here he finally found what he was looking for, on the barren, stony soils on which the striking trees grow. The vines are put under stress by the harsh environmental conditions, producing delicious, unique wines.
