Gato Negro Merlot red wine

Gato Negro is a renowned Chilean wine brand produced by Viña San Pedro, one of the oldest and most prominent wineries in Chile. Founded in 1865 in the Curicó Valley, San Pedro launched Gato Negro in the 1960s, and it has since grown into a globally recognized label available in over 80 countries.

The wine is produced and bottled in Chile, primarily utilizing grapes from the Central Valley. Historically, Viña San Pedro merged with other Chilean wine entities to form VSPT Wine Group (Viña San Pedro Tarapacá), which is the current owner. The group itself is a major player in the global wine market, controlled by CCU (Compañía de las Cervecerías Unidas), a leading South American beverage corporation based in Chile. Gato Negro remains an iconic representative of Chilean viticulture on the international stage.
