In the early 1900's Manuel Galan Nilo came to Molina as the new doctor of the village. A few years later in 1914 he bought his first vineyard “Los Olivos” which marked the first steps of the family in the wine world. His youngest son Alvaro Galan Besoain became a respected wine broker in Chile after many years in the wine business. It was he who decided in 1991 to buy the current vineyards together with his sons in order to put their passion into practice. Alvaro, the eldest, is now general manager and his brothers Jorge and Francisco are oenologist and commercial manager respectively. The vineyards are close to the national park of Los Siete Tazas (The Seven Cups) where the river Claro created seven waterfalls with respective tubs (Tazas) over thousands of years. In this beautiful setting, the Galan family now produces some of the best wines in the region, which are exported to more than 20 countries.

Clear, almost white color with light green reflection. Complex nose with aromas of grapefruit, lime, green apple and a hint of freshly cut grass. Its lively acidity is perfectly balanced by ripe fruity notes. Dry and challenging on the palate with confirmation of the fruit mentioned above. The balanced final lingers nicely and asks for more.

Clear, ruby red color. Strawberry, cherries, raspberries and plums give it its fruity but measured and pleasant character. It is also present in the mouth, but never pushy or aggressive. Velvety and soft it touches the taste buds. The aftertaste confirms this and lasts for a medium period of time. A simple but loyal friend at many parties and dining establishments.
