Fresita

One warm summer evening in 1717, Amedee Frezier stumbled upon a richly red and unique fruit while exploring the newly discovered Chile. The curious Frenchman delivered the first strawberry plants (‘Fresita’ in Spanish) to the Royal Court in France. Some years later the fragrant fruit delighted the Queen who enjoyed them with her daily glass of Champagne…..Since then the tradition has carried on with the fusion of the tastes of two worlds in one glass…
Fresita is a very popular drink in America as well as in other countries, this refreshing drink is produced at the feet of the Cordillera de los Andes by Vina Manquehue, a Chilean vineyard founded in1927. Vina Manquehue actually exports 60% of its annual production and is a modern company focused on combining technology and tradition using more than 70 years of extensive experience.
