Viña Santa Rita and wine production in chile since the mid‐19th century

Abstract

Viticulture was introduced into Chile during the Spanish Conquest, but only towards the end of the 19th century did it become a large‐scale activity and only in recent decades has Chilean wine become a significant export. In the history of the country's wine production, family ownership of vineyards has been a characteristic feature until recently. The present paper traces the development of a single winery and explores the changing pattern of ownership, the impact of external factors on its production of wine and its participation in the recent boom in Chile's wine exports.
