Cousiño Macul's roots go back to 1856, when Matías Cousiño acquired the roughly 1,000-hectare Hacienda Macul in the Andean foothills of the Maipo Valley. His son Luis Cousiño and daughter-in-law Isidora Goyenechea took the project further, and in 1860 Luis personally brought back Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot cuttings from Pauillac in Bordeaux's Haut-Médoc, along with Sauvignon Gris from Graves — vine stock that still underpins the estate's wines today. A proper winery building went up around 1870 to keep pace with growing production, and it's this stretch of the 1850s-70s, rather than strictly the "late 1800s," that marks the estate's real winemaking beginnings.
What sets Cousiño Macul apart from almost every other historic Chilean winery is who still owns it: it's the only winery founded in the 19th century that remains in the hands of its founding family, now into a seventh generation. The family's own passion for the estate has outlasted the city that grew up around it — by 1994, Santiago's expansion had completely surrounded the original Macul property, prompting the Cousiño family to add roughly 750 acres of new vineyard land in Buin, about 20 miles southeast of the city, while keeping the historic estate this tour visits intact.
That history is part of why Cousiño Macul is often described as one of the last working vineyards left within Santiago's own metropolitan footprint — a rural-feeling cellar tour and tasting that's genuinely still a short drive from downtown, rather than a day trip out to the valley.
