MAIPO ANDES PREMIUM TOUR
MAIPO ANDES PREMIUM TOUR
Join the Maipo Andes Premium Tour, in the region of Alto Maipo, the closest wine region right on the doorstep of Santiago.
The region stretches into the foothills of the Andes with a micro-climate perfect for well-balanced reds.
FIRST STOP…
We drive towards Pirque, a rural community on the southern edge of the Maipo valley, just out of Santiago’s sphere, where we have the opportunity to visit the personal project of renowned winemaker, German Lyon.
Enjoy a welcome glass of wine as you walk among the vines and hear the story of this family project, where everyone is hands-on and everything is human-scale. Visit the modern winemaking facility and then settle on the terrace to enjoy the view and taste the other two wines of this boutique project, while enjoying homemade charcuterie and cheese.
LUNCH & SECOND WINERY …
Next we visit a beautiful corner of the valley and visit the result of two forged passions: horses and wine. Explore the modern, horseshoe-shaped, gravity-flow winery, visit the impressive cellar, and finish with a tasting of three premium wines.
Retire to the winery’s restaurant and sit down for a tasty meal, with starter and main especially paired with wine, and followed by a delicious dessert and coffee, all while enjoying a panoramic view over the Maipo valley, the vines below and the majestic Andes mountains.
OPTIONAL THIRD WINERY …
As we head back towards Santiago, we drive to Macul, a community on the southwest edge of the Maipo valley, now a part of Santiago’s growing sphere. We visit the historical property of Cousiño Macul where you will visit the vineyard and learn about its sustainable practices, visit the antique vats where wine was made in the 19th century and the centenary underground cellars. You will taste 3 wines along the way then after the tour, a further 3 wines from the Grand Reserve and Premium lines.
We will drop you at your accommodation at the end of your day in the Alto Maipo valley.

What our clients say
Having worked in Napa, this trip blew my mind. Kylie created a wonderful day for our group. The Maipo Valley creates amazing wines. The moments of drinking wine in the... read more vineyard with the winemaker staring into the Andes was a moment I will never forget. Along with the typical Chilean bbq lunch. I can only tip my hat to Kylie for introducing them. With the great itinerary I experienced from Chile Wine Tours, I'm sure the rest will be top notch. Very detailed was taken care of. Great for any level of wine drinker.

We had a wonderful day visiting 3 wineries in the Casablanca valley with Kylie. It was such a relaxed experience - not having to think about anything because Kylie took... read more care of it all (driving, bookings, choosing the wineries, selecting lunch etc.) We felt perfectly pampered! The three wineries - Veramonte, Casas del Bosque, and Viñamar - perfectly complemented each other. And of course Kylie herself is a treasure! Charming, entertaining and not getting tired of our constant questions about the wines, wineries, and Chile in general. She also gave us recommendations unrelated to the tour that were very welcome. So if you are looking to book a private tour of Chile’s wine country look no further. Just book Kylie!

Top notch wine tour. I contacted Kylie through a recommendation and I’m so glad that I did. My husband and I were picked up on time (Kylie arrived early) and... read more away we went on the Alto Maipo tour to two wineries. The first was Santa Rita where we were educated in the process of wine making with the addition of the the history of the independence of Chile. We enjoyed some very nice wines as tastings. Off to Haras Pirque, a smaller boutique winery where we has tastings of their very good wines. Lunch was next at el Manson Toro. This is a traditional restaurant and the food/drink was outstanding. Kylie offered us a third winery which we declined as we were “wined out” so we made our way back to the hotel. Kylie is the the difference between an ok tour and a five * tour. Gracious, knowledgeable and a joy to spend time with. We highly recommend Chile Wine Trails and Kylie as your guide.

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.
