But Pablo saw the similarities to Carneros California, and took the calculated risk. He did this in a time and place where no one would have believed he would succeed. The rest is history. | | | | | |
| A WINE STORY JUNE 1, 2011 Winemaker Cristobal Undurraga Marimon comes to New York What's interesting about Christobal is that the family sold their original holdings in 1986.

According to the professional wine critics, 2004 was a very good vintage for California cabernets, merlots, and blends. These wines require patience. Margaux.) | | | | | | | |
