Itinerary
Day 1
Half day tour
After your hotel pick-up from Santiago, relax on the 30-minute trip south of the city to the Concha y Toro winery, located in the Maipo Valley wine region.
When passing through the grand entrance, marvel at the beautiful gardens of the winery, founded in 1883.
Meet your guide and group of wineries, and start your tour of the gardens next to Casona, the former summer house of La Concha. and Toro family.
Then, head to the old Pirque vineyards to learn about the techniques of the winery to grow and maintain the vines.
Listen to the vineyard masters who closely monitor the vineyards throughout the year, and then listen to stories about the long history of the winery while enjoying the wonderful view of the Maipo Valley from the cellar terrace.
Then enjoy a tasting of Casillero del Diablo, a carmenere variety (a grape originating from Bordeaux) that is one of the best known Chilean wines in the world, and then descend to the underground cellar of the winery, also called Casillero del Diablo (the Devil Winery).
Listen to the fascinating story about the founder of Concha y Toro, Don Melchor de Santiago Concha y Toro, who told the public at the end of the 19th century that the devil lived in the cellar to keep them away from his private wine collection. Thus was born the legend of Casillero del Diablo.
Finish your tour at the wine bar for a wine tasting.
If you select the only wine option, try two wines from the Casillero del Diablo flagship label. Or select the wine and cheese pairing option, which includes four Marques de Casa Concha wines, a premium label, accompanied by gourmet cheese.
Before returning to Santiago, look at the wine shop for books, souvenirs and, of course, bottles of wine to take home.
