For many years, Juan Cuneo Solari, an Italian immigrant's son, dreamed of having his own vineyards to produce the best quality wines.
At a time when the Chilean wine industry was pursuing quantity more than quality, Mr. Cuneo sought special features and distinctive qualities for a Premium Wine production.

In 1993, he founded in the Casablanca Valley, his winery, Casas del Bosque. He was one of the first to exploit the area for this purpose, becoming one of the few family wineries of the valley.

The ancient pine and Olives Woods and the small dispersed and abandoned houses, were the key factors in determining the location of the wineries and the manor house, giving the name to Casas del Bosque, or Houses of the Woods.
