South America has several wine countries, and our tour will take us to the two largest ones, Argentina and Chile, and the two greatest ones. We start with a few days in the city of Buenos Aires before continuing west to the vast wine region of Mendoza, known for its malbec but also several other grape varieties.
With the Andes in the background, Mendoza is a spectacular wine region. We see more and more vineyards at high altitudes in the quest to preserve the valuable acidity of the wines.
Our bus takes us across the mighty Andes to Chile, an unforgettable journey. We continue across Chile to the Pacific Coast, where we stay in lovely Viña del Mar. We will also visit Casablanca, with its slightly cooler climate, perfect for sauvignon blanc and pinot noir. We go on to the small town of Santa Cruz and the beautiful wine region of Colchagua, known above all for its red wines. We end the tour in the Chilean capital Santiago.
