Producer Description
Matias Garce9s Silva launched Amayna with his family’s support with their first vintage in 2003. However, the project had its origins in the late 90’s when the Garce9s Silva family recognized the incredible, overlooked potential of Chile’s San Antonio coast for premium viticulture. After building a pipeline from the Maipo river to this region to bring water for vine irrigation, the Leyda Valley officially entered the world of fine Chilean wine. The word “amayna” in Chile loosely translates to “the calm after the storm” – that ominous yet peaceful feeling that you only experience around the ocean. Their gravity-fed winery and vineyards sit with an unobstructed view just 7 miles from the Pacific Ocean.
