Chile and Argentina, two wine countries with rocket-speed evolution | South America wine tour

Share/like this post:

Argentina and Chile conquered the world when their wines appeared 30-35 years ago. Since then, a lot has happened. The wines are still popular but have become more interesting and exciting as producers have learned to use the climate differences and other conditions they have in their various regions. We will get an insight into these developments during our wine tour while getting to know the people behind it, enjoying the scenery, the magnificent nature and generous and memorable lunches at the vineyards.

The wine tour starts in the big city of Buenos Aires (amazing!), and we have time for a tango evening and a sightseeing tour before we go on to Mendoza, Argentina’s largest wine region.

Here, we are close to the Andes Mountains, which play a significant role in the viticulture here, apart from being a lovely backdrop to the vineyards. We cross the border into Chile (spectacular!) in the middle of the mountain range and then continue across the country to the coast, where we visit Casablanca’s cool climate, wine region, and the extraordinary city of Valparaiso.

Beautiful Colchagua is our next stop. Here, we blend visits to prestigious growers and smaller wine estates. We finish in Chile’s capital, Santiago (a dramatic contrast to Buenos Aires).

Join us on this wine tour and discover the wine countries of Chile and Argentina.
