Chile is one of the most exciting wine countries in the world. Its vineyards stretch for more than 800 miles between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. This creates a wide range of climates, from dry desert heat in the north to cool ocean breezes in the south.

The first  vines were planted by Spanish settlers in the 1500s. Later, French winemakers brought new grape varieties and shaped Chile’s winemaking style. Today, the country is known for smooth Carménère, rich Cabernet Sauvignon, and crisp, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc.

Chile’s wines are full of life and character. The combination of sunshine, sea air, and mountain soil gives them purity and balance that wine lovers everywhere enjoy.
