Vina Las Niñas is a wine company in the Apalta Valley of Chile. The winery was founded in 1997 by three French families, who fell in love with the region during a trip to Chile. The vineyard is named after the families' three daughters.
In the local indigenous dialect, Apalta means “earthquake”, the land itself is shaped like a small horseshoe-shaped valley. Sheltered in the North, East and West by hills, up to a height of about 600 meters and bathed in the gentle breeze that blows between the mountain range of the Andes and the South Pacific. The Tinguiririca River marks the end of the valley south of Apalta. This river regulates the temperature and supplies the necessary water for irrigation. The soil is partly sandy clay, but also with a rocky volcanic mixture in other places, with average summer temperatures of around 23°C.
Little by little, Las Niñas has come to better understand the terroir to ensure the production of top quality grapes, allowing them to produce some of the most remarkable wines in Chile.
