Our Story: Unique, Craft Wines from Chile
Founded by Chris Milliken (U.S.A.) and Max Eyzaguirre (Chile) in 2004, ‘PengWine’ is a producer of unique wine from the Chilean Maipo Valley. Wine-making is a unique and adventurous endeavour, and so the founders sought to represent these qualities when naming their company. The resilient penguins that make their home along the Chilean coast perfectly embody many of the qualities that Chris and Max see in their craft, and so, ‘PengWine’ was born.
Since bottling their first vintage of ‘PengWine’ in 2003, both men have meticulously chosen the best grapes from their boutique vineyard in Chile, to create unique wines that you can enjoy without ever leaving your hometown. To toast and honor these land and sea-loving birds, each of the varietals are named after a different penguin native to South America. Today, ‘PengWine’ is headquartered in Singapore, and is rapidly expanding into neighbouring countries in the Southeast Asia region.
Cheers!
