Full Day Tour of Wines and Vineyards of Chile
With its natural comparative advantages and isolated geographical position between the Andean Mountain Range, the Pacific Ocean and the vast desert in the North, Chile has always been free from phyloxera and other plagues which affect the vine. This explains the outstanding quality of Chilean grapes. The fine quality of the fruit used, together with the very latest technological know-how, has given Chilean wines a reputation for excellence throughout the world.
This tour is available all year round, although we recommend that you try to visit the vineyards in February and March as these are the months when the vineyards are preparing their vintages.
