Chile

Chile’s fine wine scene has risen dramatically in recent decades, with top regions such as Maipo Valley, Aconcagua Valley and Colchagua Valley producing wines of real pedigree. A unique combination of factors - high-altitude vineyards, cooling influences from the Andes and Pacific, and long, dry growing seasons - allow for slow, even ripening and exceptional purity of fruit. Pioneering estates such as Seña, a collaboration between Eduardo Chadwick and Robert Mondavi, helped prove Chile’s world-class potential. Today, Chile excels in polished, structured Cabernet-based wines that combine New World clarity with Old World finesse, often at exceptional value.
