About
We are a Brazilian couple, who left our home country to build a dream in Casablanca. Our hands are in every part of the process from vineyard to bottling. Sustainable focused and eco-minded, we built the winery based on recycled shipping containers and the irrigation system is powered by solar energy. We craft cool climate, coastal, world-class wines, on a human scale. Our wines are always ranked among the best in the country. The AM Malbec was recently awarded as The Best Malbec in Chile for the second time. Franc is the real boss and often joins the visitors, but you should never pet him. This is a privilege reserved only for us :-) IMPORTANT: We do not have "open doors" and have visitors by appointment only.

Wine Tasting
Mar 2020
My husband and I were lucky enough to take a tour of this winery before COVID hit and we are so grateful we could. This wine was hands down some of the best I ever had, Angela was so knowledgeable and passionate about what they are making and the dog was a plus! We brought 2 bottles home and are already trying to figure out how to get more to NYC. Angela-can we order some more?!?

It was such a pleasure having you here, Franc was crazy all around your group, we both had a great time :-)
For sure you can order some wines to NYC. We can ship to 28 states in the US, and NY is one of them. Pls send me a note at angela@attiliomochi.com and I will send you all the info about shipping.
And btw, if you come down here soon, you will meet Vi, a lovely rescue that is now the newest member of the family.
All my best, and stay safe!!

Angela and her husband had a dream and this vineyard is the dream come to life. A beautiful, brilliantly thought out, experience and wisdom in use, vineyard. Organic, prize winning, a model for all vineyards to use. Congrats Angela and hubby. Well done!

Spectacular wine, great eco-conscious owners
Jan 2020
This is a small family-run winery with lovely owners. Angela gave us a tour of their innovative facility and led the tasting. The wines are spectacular, made in a very eco-conscious manner (great since the valley has been in drought for over 10 years). We especially enjoyed the Pinot and DulceFuerte (similar to Port). A great escape from the larger vineyards of Casablanca. We visited with our 2 year old son and the space was perfect for him to run around and play in nature.

Thank you Whitney for your kind comments, it was such a pleasure having you and your beautiful family here. Living in an eco-friendly, responsible way is something we all should do, right? There is no plan B for the planet! And now, knowing we are "neighbors", hope we can meet again in the short future.
All the best,
Angela

Super-cool new and innovative vineyard!
Nov 2019
The owner herself did our tour, since this is a new and up-and-coming vineyard who is proving to the world that they can grow amazing grapes, even red grapes (which many believed not possible, til they started winning prizes). She was VERY personable and accessible with her information, and her enthusiasm for her new life (they moved from Brazil) was palpable. Fun time.

Short notice tour
Nov 2019 • Couples
We were accommodated at very short notice. Our host was very friendly and welcoming and has an easy manner in describing the philosophy of this small production winery.
We really enjoyed the sample wines and explanations, however I felt it was expensive in relation to other tours at more established wineries.

Tks for coming by and rating our tour and tasting. Regarding the price, I would just like to point that here we offer a truly "meet and talk to the owner and winemaker" experience. On top of that, our wines are really world-class, just recently the AM Malbec was chosen as The Best Malbec in the country, the Amber as the 2nd best in the Orange Wines category, AM Grenache as 2nd Best Grenache in the country and AM Cab Franc is listed in James Suckling Top 100 wines from Chile.

A Lovely Story For an Off the Beaten Path Boutique Winery
Aug 2019
Took the tour on the recommendation of our hotelier. This lovely Brazillian couple moved to Chile in 2011 to pursue their dream of becoming winemakers. This is a true "mom and pop" operations which puts out about 12K bottles annually, themselves. The wife (Angela) speaks perfect English. Because her husband (Marcus) always wanted to make red wine, these are the couple's signature wines in a valley known for its white wines. Angela revels in their beginnings when most locals told her and Marcus that they were fools to grow red grapes in the Valley. But it turns out their wines are some of the most renowned in the country (get her to tell you the story when Costco came a knocking). Prices are a little high, but Angela says they're worth it. Definitely recommend.

What a lovely place
Feb 2019 • Couples
I try to avoid larger wineries and seach for smaller places where one can have a more intimate experience - or as intimate as possible - and A&M works on all fronts. As mentioned here, the Granache is amazing and I absolutely loved their unfiltered 'orange' wine Amber as I did their lovely minerally Sav blanc. One would sit chatting to charming co-owner/winemaker Angela for hours. As I had read in previous reviews before going there, it really is like visiting a friend. Highly recommended. Only disspointment: Franc (their dog) is lovely but would be lovelier if he let himself be petted!

It´s so nice to read a review like this....I really enjoy having people here, and so does Franc. I remember him wagging his tail for you many times, but yes.....he has his "personal/dogal" space, so only Marcos and I are allowed to pet him (lucky us!!!). On the other hand, I totally get your disappointment hahaha

A wonderful surprise...
Mar 2019
We came here at the end of a three week tour of both Argentina and Chile and what a find. From the minute we arrived, Angela made us feel completely at home and encouraged questions, photographs and total enjoyment. The surprise is how good the wine is with the Grenache absolute heaven. I am just so sorry I cannot yet buy this in the uk but will live in hope! If you get the chance to visit this fabulous family run vineyard where wine really is made with passion, you will not be disappointed.

Thank you very much for your opinion!! We just picked up all the Malbec and going for the Cab Franc and Grenache in 2 or 3 more weeks. Hope we can find a smaller/more proper distributor in UK soon, and so you can have it easily nearby you. All the best !!

Charming
Feb 2019 • Couples
Coming to A&M is like going to a friend's home, where you feel sincerely welcome from the moment go. This small boutique winery produces some lovely fresh, crisp and original wines and Angela, co-owner with her husband, gives what I think must best the best winery tour I have had ever had anywhere in the world. The fact that you are taking to the winemakers themselves and not a guide, plus the small scale of the place makes for a truly memorable experience. Thanks to the people on Andanzas Andinas for suggesting it

Lovely hidden gem
Dec 2018 • Couples
A guide at another winery in Casablanca suggested we visit A&M and I'm so glad we did. Angela is fun, entertaining and wonderful host. Her explanation of their sweet boutique winery and processes were fascinating as is their life story, giving it all up in Brazil to pursue a passion for making great wine. Although they make various different wines there were at that point only three to try, but that was fine. We loved them all especially the 2013 Pinot which is incredible. Absolutely worth a visit. Thanks Angela!

I have to tell you that only now I saw your comments about us and absolutely loved it. Thank you!! Definitely, I need to log on Trip Advisor more frequently :-)
Btw, we just bottled the Amber (the orange wine) and Grenache The First (the really first from our beautiful Casablanca Valley). The next will be DulceFuerte, a fortified wine, kind of Port Vintage.
Hope you can come back here some other time, and enjoy these ones as well.
Have a great weekend,
Angela
