The winery was founded in 1851 by Don Silvestre Ochagavía Errázuriz, an industrialist of the mining and agriculture.[1] He visited to Europe and studied the latest winemaking. After his study, he went back to Chile, bringing the new style to Chilean wine by the grapes from Bordeaux, France. The red grapes were Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Pinot noir etc. and the white grapes were Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc, Sémillon, Riesling etc. Thus the winery contributed to change Chilean wine history,[2][3] and the founder is referred to as the father of modern Chilean winemaking.[citation needed]
