Álvaro Espinoza is one of the finest winemakers in South America and also one of the foremost biodynamic winemakers in the world. His celebrated wine, Antiyal, is often referred to as Chile’s first “garage wine.” Antiyal produces fewer than 400 cases of wine a year in the sleepy Maipo Valley town of Alta Jahuel. Antiyal, a Mapuche word that means “sons of the sun”, is a homegrown project. It’s so homegrown that the one-acre vineyard around the Espinoza’s house supplies most of the wine’s biodynamic grapes. This wine is among the very best wines being produced in South America and is comprised of 49% Carmenère, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 16% Syrah. It’s aged in French barrels for eighteen months, then in the bottle for another six months.
