Trapi wines are born from estate vineyards, planted by their owners after a search for years of a special place of cold climate with characteristics such that allow the development of oenology with a minimal intervention in their processes. It is a very special place, only 40 meters above sea level, at the foot of the mountain range, which quickly reaches 1,100 m.a.s.l. high, functioning as a natural screen that protects the vineyards from the intense Valdivia jungle rains. The nearest town is La Unión at a distance of 30 km and toa distance of 60 km from the city of Valdivia. The complexity of the soil comes from its formation of very old volcanic ashes deposited on multicoloured conglomerates.
