Our wines express a sense of place and are our tribute to the terroir that gave them origin
Juan Sutil dreamed of being able to offer the world wines that would be true ambassadors of Chile and its people, and it was his nephew Diego García de la Huerta who made it come true.
Diego was Viña Sutil’s first winemaker, and he believed strongly in the enological philosophy of terroir that holds that wines are the true expression of the variety, the land they come from, and the hands that craft them.
He traveled throughout the country to find the perfect combination of climate and land to plant vineyards. In Limarí, he was attracted by the calcareous soils and the “mineral” touch that they impart to the wines, especially whites. In Cauquenes, it was the poor soils and clusters with small berries that give very concentrated wines with intense color that caught his attention.
Our enological work is founded upon our firm belief that, “the truth is in the origin.” Special vinification practices and ongoing experimentation are aimed at naturally obtaining the best varietal expression, as only our land can provide.
We want our wines to portray their origin, be approachable, and help create enjoyable occasions.
Camilo was born in the city of Santiago, Chile and attended the Scuola Italiana. A life-long lover of nature and the country life, he chose to study agronomy, eventually specializing in winemaking and graduating as a winemaker in 1998 from the Universidad de Chile.
His studies included internships (as assistant winemaker) at Viña Concha y Toro and then at Viña de Martino.
In 1999, he became Head Winemaker and Production Manager at Viña Casas del Bosque, where he also actively participated in vineyard management with the viticultural team.
