Tasting and exploring in the Aconcagua Wine Valley, a lesser-known region to the north of Santiago and at the foothills of the impressive Andes mountains, and the namesake mountain, the largest in the entire Andean range.
You will be picked up from your Santiago location and transported in comfort to your first stop.
A family-owned and operated winery where you will take a brief tour of the winery, and hear how one man’s dream of making quality wines became a reality. Hear about the special touches that go into making these premium wines and the terroir of this corner of the valley. Then taste three of their wines accompanied by bread and local cheeses.
You then have a unique opportunity to visit a small boutique winery, the personal project of an experienced winemaker. We will visit their typical Chilean country house and orchard before sitting down to a tasting of three of their wines. Talk personally with the owner, and enjoy an intimate and personally-prepared three-course lunch paired with their wines.
You will then be transported back to Santiago at the end of a truly unique and personal day.

I simply cannot imagine how the tour that Kylie designed and booked for us could have been better. Not only did we have someone to drive us so that we... read more could drink wine (Chile has a zero tolerance policy for drinking and driving), we had a tour guide who made all the winery bookings, a
Sommelier, and interpreter all rolled into one. Kylie is so knowledgeable that she put together a 2.5 day tour that really showcased the Chilean wine industry and the fantastic wines that they had to offer. She has wonderful relationships with the winemakers and staff who made us feel like VIPs. Great tour at a great price. Thank you Kylie!
This was a really amazing tour that made us feel looked after and catered to. Kylie prepared a totally customized tour for us, with an amazing price-value, specific to the... read more locations, times, and days we could go (limited in time). She did everything to make sure we were comfortable, having fun, and fulfilled all our wishes and requests.
On our tour, we were picked up on time in a BMW (tour was only us two and one other woman) and whisked away to Santa Rita as a first stop. Although this is a major wine producer in Chile, the tour was a good size and the grounds were absolutely gorgeous. We tried a few wines and Kylie, the tour guide, even bought each of us some snacks and another glass of wine to enjoy in the gardens before heading off to the next stop.
We next went to a small but amazingly tasty restaurant and were treated to a three course lunch with a bottle of wine, water, and coffee. We couldnt get over how good the food was and generous the tour was. Our next stop was a smaller winery, William Fevre, where we got to see the production area, speak with the manager, walk around the grounds, and try some of their best wines.
We would recommend this tour to anyone staying in Santiago or going to Chile! We thouroughly enjozed the day and tips for Santiagos wine bars afterwards!
My wife and i recently booked and took an all day trip to cadablance with visits to 3 wineriws and could not have been more pleased..pwner did a great... read more job of answering our question as onexwho knows the business and has good contact relations with many wineries..overall a very good experiencw
Kylie met us when we got off our cruise ship in San Antonio. What a wonderful guide and person Kylie is. She is very organized and runs her... read more company in a very professional manner. We spend two days with her and she helped us find hotels & restaurants. What she does best is show you varieties of wineries in both size and complexity. She arranges great tours and lunches. The tours are well paced so you see a great deal but have time to enjoy each winery and lunch. We had two perfect days and I can't imagine anything better. Kylie of Chile Wine Trails has the highest recommendation we can offer, you will not be disappointed.
we ate we drank we got merry. And all off the usual beaten track of Chilean enoturismo. We asked Kylie to put together a package that would be interesting... read more and different and she delivered in spades. The tour was a family Christmas treat so started from our flat in Las Condes and took in William Fevre in Pirque (for an early thirst quencher) where we met the enologist who discussed the different terroirs up the Cajon de Maipu and around Pirque, and how they affect the wines. We had a mooch round the wine making facilities and then got to the important bit - a tasting under the trees (yummy) and some retail therapy in the bodega shop. We tried a chardonnay, a rose and the chacai (¿cachai?) a rather excellent asemblaje. Unfortunately we cleaned the shop out of it and would have bought more if we could.
Next stop was Chateau Los Boldos - not usually open to Joe Public but that doesn't stop Kylie! Here we met the viticulturist - the guy in charge of actually growing grapes good enough to make the wine. It was here that we learned how much a team effort the whole vitification is (and how the enologists steal all the glory!). We asked loads of questions, almost overstayed our welcome and of course did some tasting. Again excellent wines, no shop a few hints as to where you can buy them in Santiago. next stop was Anakena and lunch. We were late but we still got the tour description of the process tour of the gardens and shown how the leaves of the different vines differ. The to the restaurant which was outstanding. Delicious hors d'oeuvres awaited us while the chef put the finishing touches to lunch. Well he had some more wine with lunch and of course bought yet more (cases) in the shop. After lunch it was time for some photos and then the ride home.
Kylie provided a highly personalised service with a great selection of different vineyards and delicious at very reasonable prices. If you hadn't guessed I'd recommend going on one of her trips (unless you don't like wine or food). I'll be going on another soon I am sure.
An amazing two days in the capable hands of Kylie and Julio(Driver) visiting two great wine valleys outside of Santiago. Great communication and very varied selection of wineries on our... read more list. Lunch spots were very diverse and delicious too. We were very pleased and Kylie offered all sorts of other ideas and suggestions to make our Santiago Visit even more special.
