• It was created on April, 2007 after an historic agreement between the two pre-existing associations—both now inactive—Viñas de Chile A.G. and ChileVid A.G., which allowed Chilean producers to unify the industry’s representation for its trade and promotional efforts.
• Vinos de Chile currently has 89 member wineries, which represent over 92% of Chile’s exports of bottled wine.
