The wines of Chile are evolving and dynamic, from the traditional robust red wines that defined Chile’s wine history to the terroir-obsessive, old-vine wines energizing the current wine scene, Chile’s wine industry offers diversity, excitement and tremendous value.
In the class, we will explore the varied topography and terroir of Chile from the vineyards growing in view of the Pacific Ocean, through the Entre Cordillera and up into the Andes and learn why Miguel Torres famously referred to Chile as a “Wine Growers Paradise.”
