Diverse, Vibrant Chile
Chile’s wine landscape is as diverse as the latitudes it spans where, today, vineyards are planted from the desert north to the cool lake district in the far south. In between, is the Mediterranean heartland stretching over a thousand kilometers producing an incredible array of wines from zippy coastal whites to robust red blends and traditional grape varieties to the native criolla grapes. Modern Chile is a wine paradise for wine lovers everywhere of all kinds of wines.
On this special trip, hosted by co-founder, sommelier, and chef Liz Caskey in her adopted country, she will invite you into her Santiago home, to the table, into the vineyards, the cellars and kitchens with winemakers, wine growers, and chefs that are forging the modern identity of wines, and the culinary scene, in Chile.
Through an impeccably curated itinerary based in Santiago and the Colchagua Valley, you will get an education in Chilean wines that spans multiple valleys, regions, styles, varieties, vintages, and ways to appreciate wine. This can range from special meals with winemakers to barrel tastings, blending sessions, vertical tastings, comparative tastings of regions not visited, and even a cooking class with vinters who are amazing cooks!
