Full Day Private Colchagua Wine Tour from Santiago
About This Experience
Wineries visited:
- Los Maquis
- Viña Montes for lunch
- Viña Clos Apalta, wine by glass NOT included
- Wine tasting at prestigious Neyen winery
The Colchagua Valley is one of the world’s premier wine tourist destinations. Known for its beautiful vineyard covered hills, hundred year old vines, enchanting colonial estate houses and modern high tech wineries, sets up a perfect atmosphere to enjoy a day trip from Santiago city.
Located in the southern half of the Rapel Valley, the Colchagua Valley has evolved over the last twenty years from being a calm stretch of farmland to becoming one of the largest and most active wine-producing regions in the country. The relatively low altitude of the coastal hills allows the Pacific breeze to mingle with the Andean winds, which cools the valley and prolongs the maturation period of the region.
