About the winery · Vina Santa Rita ›

Vina Santa Rita is a historic Chilean producer founded in 1880 by Domingo Fernandez Concha, with its home estate in Buin in the Maipo Valley. The 120 line is positioned as an approachable, everyday range built around uncomplicated fruit and value. Santa Rita makes wines across several Chilean regions and tiers, from the 120 range through Medalla Real and Casa Real. The 120 Cabernet Sauvignon should not be confused with Santa Rita's Secret Reserve, Medalla Real, Casa Real, or single-vineyard Cabernet bottlings.
