About the Winery
Taking advantage of the excellent sanitary conditions of Chile,
and maintaining the old traditions in the land culture, the La Fortuna
winery has transformed in recent years into one of the most important
Chilean actors in organic wine production. All the vineyards are
grown in total absence of chemical pesticides and herbicides thus
resulting in an official organic grape production and they are certified
by the Swiss Agency IMO, recognized throughout the world.
Northeast Wine Brokers is proud to be the exclusive agent for the
