Our Story
La Uva Wines is a collaboration of a unique combination of two authentic families, with over 100 years of experience in the industry as Producers and Importers in the wine industry. With a passion and drive to source grapes that were innovative and distinctly New World, they decided that Chile was the best wine region. Our winery’s current viticulture and enological techniques, as well as their commitment to sustainability and most up to date technology for crafting fine wines, gave us the opportunity to artfully create wines that ensured our core goals of pursuing excellence and attaining the highest quality wines at affordable prices. LaUva wines are nurtured, grown and produced in beautiful Alto Cachapoal, at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. With the ever fast growing demand on Blends, our exciting LaUva Red & White wines evolved by combining the traditions of the Old World, with a markedly New Age style.
With the expertise and vision of our renowned winemaker, Gavin Taylor, different varietals were blended together until eventually a symphony of flavors were achieved that was so unique, so enchanting, that it had to be called LaUva.

Sustainability
La Uva Wines is actively committed to caring for the environment and promoting integrated agriculture that ensures a perfect balance in the vineyards we partner with.
In September 2003 our Chilean winery signed a Clean Production Agreement (CPA) pledging to adopt all measures needed to ensure the conservation of the environment.
In 2010, our winery also joined the rest of the Chilean wine industry in formulating an agreement to protect the environment and pledge its corporate social responsibility through a Sustainability Program.
For La Uva Wines, sustainability is more than just a “fashionable phase”. It goes far beyond pure ecological concerns related to producing high quality, fine grapes. It embraces all three components of a responsible company’s operation: the environment, people, and economics. In December 2011, our winery performed outstandingly among the first 14 wineries in Chile to obtain their Sustainability Certification after successfully meeting the requirements of the protocol!

Chile
La Uva white, with undertones of pale, golden-straw colors, has a very authentic and unique blend of refreshing Chardonnay and luscious Viognier. These vibrant, new combinations exhibit exciting notes of melon, peach and flowery violets. This is a light, well balanced wine, suitable for all occasions.
LA Uva red, with a deep and beautiful violet color, has a unique and flavorful blend of smooth Cabernet Sauvignon and rich Syrah. These creative choices have an integrated combination of fresh plums, dark chocolate and notes of sweet spices. These fresh and well balanced wines are suitable for all occasions, but especially ideal pairing with lamb, beef and veal.
