Matetic

Matetic Vineyard is a Chilean estate in the San Antonio Valley, specifically the Rosario Valley sub-appellation of the Aconcagua region, producing wines with a focus on biodynamic and organic viticulture and a style strongly influenced by the proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Founded in 1999 by the Matetic family — one of Chile's oldest landowning families — the estate planted Pinot Noir, Syrah, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc in this cool coastal zone before the San Antonio Valley had established its reputation. At auction, the Corralillo Pinot Noir averages $115 per bottle across 100 lots with a range up to $302 — a significant premium for Chilean Pinot, reflecting the estate's critical standing and the relative scarcity of world-class Pinot from Chile. The Rosario Valley's proximity to the cold Humboldt Current moderates temperatures dramatically, allowing Pinot Noir to achieve genuine coolness of flavor profile — often compared favorably to Burgundy in blind tastings. At $115 average, Matetic stands as one of the most auction-significant Chilean Pinot Noir producers.
