House of Morande Export Manager for Asia Gonzalo Montes presents the wines featured for the night.

House of Morande started in 1996 “with a plan to make great and innovative wines of the highest quality with grapes from vineyards in Chile’s most interesting wine valleys,” said Export Manager for Asia Gonzalo Montes.

The House of Morande was among the first to adopt new enological practices such as using concrete ‘eggs’ and going back to using the traditional-but-forgotten large oak foudres for producing reserve-level wines. They were also the first winery to produce a late harvest wine in Chile and the first recognized as 100% sustainable.
