About the Winemaker

Carter Mollenhauer

Carter Mollenhauer is a family winery operated by husband and wife team Edgard Carter and Karine Mollenhauer. They focus on producing small-batch wines using indigenous grape varieties. Their winemaking philosophy centers on organic farming and minimal intervention, aiming to highlight the purity and authenticity of Chilean wines. Their process involves manual labor, gravity-fed operations, and native fermentation techniques. The winery was established in 2014 after Edgard gained extensive experience in international winemaking regions such as California, Barossa, and Côtes du Rhône.

The Region

Maule Valley, Chile

Chile's Maule Valley is like the secret, awesome friend you haven't met yet. It's massive, with bold red wines like carmenere and cabernet sauvignon bursting with juicy dark fruit. But wait, there's more! Coastal breezes keep things lively, and there's even crisp sauvignon blanc and tropical chardonnay. It's a hidden gem with something for everyone, and it's having a major glow-up right now. Ready to ditch the boring and discover your new fave wine region?
