Chile is internationally recognized for the quality of its wines, but experiencing them directly at their source is an experience that goes far beyond a simple tasting. <\/p>\n\n

In Chile, the term is also used to name the vineyard or wine house that offers tourist visits: tours through the vines, barrel rooms, underground cellars, and guided tastings.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n There, you can learn about the entire production process, from the harvest to aging in oak barrels, and try flagship varieties like Carmen\u00e8re, Cabernet Sauvignon, or Syrah<\/strong>, in landscapes ranging from the central valley to the coast.<\/p>\n\n VIK was the first Chilean winery to be named the best in the world, in 2025.
