CHILE
The southern region of Chile, including the Biobío, Malleco, and Itata valleys, is emerging as a new frontier for winemaking.
The Biobío Valley, with its cool climate and volcanic soils, is ideal for vibrant white wines like Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Malleco, one of Chile’s southernmost valleys, is known for its elegant, high-acid Pinot Noir. Itata, with its centuries-old vineyards and traditional practices, produces unique wines, particularly from the Cinsault and País grape varieties.
Wineries in southern Chile offer a unique rural wine tourism experience, with visits to historic and artisanal vineyards, tastings of natural wines, and tours through picturesque countryside landscapes. In addition to the wines, tourists can explore the cultural richness of the region, including local cuisine featuring fresh fish and seafood, and the warm hospitality of the local people.
Southern Chile promises an authentic and unforgettable wine tourism experience.
