THE COMPANY
Calyptra comes from the Greek Calyptros, which means “hat.” Metaphorically, the vineyard greets the spring season by removing its hat through the blooming of the buds. In the name of this winery, we find one of the fundamental principles it is based on: a deep respect for the environment. In 1989, the famous plastic surgeon José Zahri bought Santa Cruz de Coya, a plot of about 60 hectares, purely for pleasure. The doctor and entrepreneur decided to embark on his winemaking adventure by replacing the existing fruit orchards with the first Chardonnay cuttings. After careful study of the soil and microclimatic conditions, perfect for high-level production, it became clear that Calyptra's philosophy should focus on creating exceptional, unique, and niche wines that reflect the terroir. Even today, the goal of this winery is to produce some of the most refined wines in the world, using cultivation methods that respect nature and both artisanal and modern winemaking processes, with the aim of preserving the purity and integrity of the cultivated grape varieties. The main varieties are Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot.
