Santa Rita Winery Tour & Tasting Itinerary
Chilean wine has a long history dating back to the 16th century and the Maipo Valley is one of the country's most important wine-producing regions. After being picked up from your hotel in Santiago de Chile, you'll make your way south into the beautiful countryside surrounding the Maipo River, where vines stretch as far as the eye can see.
Arriving at the Santa Rita Winery, a leading Chilean winemaker, you'll begin your guided tour of the wine cellars, learning all about the tradition of winemaking here.
