A Taste of Tradition: Maipo Valley's Legendary Wines

Come with us to the Maipo Valley, the celebrated birthplace of the Chilean wine industry. Nestled in the foothills of the majestic Andes, this is Chile's most historic wine region, home to the legendary Cabernet Sauvignon that first put the country on the world's wine map.

Your day of classic indulgence begins as we visit two of the valley's most prestigious and historic wineries. You’ll walk through century-old cellars and learn the fascinating story of Carmenere, the "lost grape of Bordeaux" that was rediscovered here and became Chile's signature varietal. Of course, you'll taste a superb range of wines, from powerful Cabs to rich Carmenere and crisp whites, showcasing the full expression of these iconic estates. After the tastings, we'll enjoy a leisurely lunch before a scenic drive back to Santiago.
