 O.K. Distributors Brings High-Quality Wines from Chile to S.W. Michigan
 hile's geography with the Andes Mountains to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west provides some key components to prime growing conditions for grapes including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Carmenère. The dry conditions of the nearby mountains help establish a wide swing in temperatures over a 24-hour period. Thus, the cool temperatures during nighttime greatly nurture the acidity levels of grapes on the vine. In addition, melting snow from the high elevations of the Andes is used by growers to irrigate vineyards in Chile's most abundant wine regions. |

Llai Llai
We do not think of who we are and what we do in terms of Old World or New World. We think of ourselves as passionate people who want to make a difference in wine, with wine and around wine. Exploring South America is one of our passions. Not content to continue growing grapes in the same regions we always have, we set out more than two decades ago to explore new lands, curious to see how different soils and climates would affect our favorite wine varietals.
