Gustavo & Simon preparing the vines for winter pruning. Quality wine comes from quality vines producing quality grapes. There are no short cuts to quality!

We enjoyed a celebratory lunch at at the W Hotel with Billy and Britney.
Both contributed significantly to making the Bodega Showcase an excellent and delicious experience. There was no better place to celebrate, especially with Wavehog White, which paired beautifully with so many dishes.
A heartfelt thank you to , , and the entire Karai team for an outstanding afternoon. 🙌🍷

¡Qué evento tan increíble!
La primera edición del Santa Ana Bodegas Showcase ya es historia. ¡La pasamos genial y esperamos que ustedes también!
Un enorme agradecimiento a todos los que asistieron, participaron en las masterclasses y se llevaron un mayor aprecio por el arte y el cuidado que ponemos para transformar uvas en vinos especiales.
Estamos especialmente agradecidos con nuestro gran socio La Sirca por su excelente colaboración. También un agradecimiento especial al Cuerpo de Bomberos de Población por prestar su camión para la rifa de botellas, y a nuestros compañeros viñedos: Reno Wines, Alchemy y D3, por su apoyo y participación.
Aprendimos mucho y seguimos recolectando feedback para que la segunda edición sea aún mejor.
¡Gracias de nuevo! Sin ustedes esto no habría sido posible.

What a fantastic event!
The inaugural Santa Ana Bodegas Showcase is officially in the books. We had an absolute blast and hope you did too!
A huge thank you to everyone who came out, joined the masterclasses, and left with a deeper appreciation for the craft and care that go into turning grapes into exceptional wine.
We’re especially grateful to our wonderful partner, La Sirca, for their fantastic collaboration. Special thanks as well to the Población Fire Department for providing their truck for the bottle raffle fundraiser, and to our fellow vineyards — Reno Wines, Alchemy, and D3 — for their support and participation.
We learned a lot and are currently gathering feedback to make the second edition even better.
Thank you again — we couldn’t have done it without you!

In New Orleans, we call ourselves a melting pot—
a place where cultures come together to create something bigger than the parts.

Think about gumbo…
French technique, African influence, Spanish flavor—
all in one pot, working together to make something unforgettable.

👉 Santa Ana is the same idea—just in the soil.

At Viña Los Chanchitos, we’re not one soil type.
We’re a blend of clay, alluvial, gravel, and lighter soils—
each one bringing something different to the table:

• Clay → richness & smooth texture
• Alluvial → balance & versatility
• Gravel → structure & power
• Lighter soils → freshness & aromatics

On their own, they’re good.
Together… they create wines with depth, balance, and character.

Different soils. One passion.
Just like NOLA… it’s all about the blend.

We’re now bringing in the Carmenère, a key grape for both our Barrel 91 and King Cuvée. The end of this season has been challenging, especially with the surprise rain we had two nights ago. We’re being extremely selective with the harvest and are optimistic that these grapes will produce an outstanding wine. Rambo and Checo are always there for the support
