Wine Tour Details
On the day of your tour, your adventure begins with a pickup from your accommodation in Santiago. You'll leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind and travel deep into the Colchagua Valley, a journey that takes approximately 2 hours through scenic vineyard-covered hills. During this time, your expert guide will provide insight into the unique soil types, highlighting why this region is perfect for producing Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
Your first destination will be the Viña Neyen vineyard, known for its stunning vineyards featuring vines that are over 130 years old. Here, you'll learn about the vineyard's organic and biodynamic practices, explore the historic winery, and partake in a wine tasting of two of its wines.
Next, the tour continues to Viña Viu Manent. Upon arrival, you'll be directed to La Rayuela restaurant, where you can savor a delicious lunch at your own expense, all while enjoying a panoramic view of the verdant fields. The seasonal menu focuses on meat and fish, allowing you to pair your meal with wines recommended by the sommelier.
Following lunch, the tour proceeds to the La Llavería Visitor Center, where you will discover more about the Viu Manent vineyard. After a brief visit to the Malbec Room and the Variety Garden, an exciting old horse-drawn carriage ride awaits to take you through the vineyards. This experience is not just scenic; it offers a deep dive into traditional winemaking practices.
To conclude our day, you'll engage in a guided tasting of five wines from the Gran Reserva, Secreto, and Super Premium lines. Cheers!
Finally, after a comprehensive experience lasting a total of 11.5 hours, the journey will conclude with a return to your hotel in Santiago de Chile.
