Several centuries ago there was a monastery in Montefranco, Italy, which safeguarded the Vatican's best wines, the ones that were only used for royal or aristocratic occasions. The monks of Montefranco developed great expertise in identifying varieties and qualities. We pay tribute to that story, making now in Chile this unique wine that has all the passion, quality and hard work that made the wine collection of Montefranco world-famous.
