The company remains 100% under family control, producing limited quantities of fine wines. Such is the high quality of the wines produced here that Hugh Johnson gave Cousino Macul the biggest compliment possible in the wine world naming them as "the First Growth of Chile".

The vines were originally planted in Macul, Maipo Valley, from stalks brought from Burgundy in France at the end of the 19th Century.
