One of Casas del Bosque’s biggest strengths is its soil. In the hills, red clay composites of volcanic origin sit on top of decomposed granite layers formed 110 million years ago beneath the Pacific Ocean. This soil gives their wines the unique characteristic sea salt flavor.  Casas del Bosque has gained great prestige over the years and in 2010 became the Best Vineyard to Visit in Chile.

What people are saying about Valparaiso Region

This was a great day trip from Santiago. Driver Cristian and Guide Daniel were both excellent! We had lots of time to walk around Valparaiso and see the wonderful murals. Daniel guided us to the best spots. First though we went to a fish market on the coast and there was time to explore for a bit there also. Lunch was on our own which was really nice as we did not all have to choose from the same menu which would not always work for everyone. Then the wine tasting was on the way home which was perfect. We did a different tour on a different day and they had wine tasting first which just makes me sleepy and tired

Our guide Maru was amazing, her energy and enthusiasm were contagious. We had a great group of people which made it even more enjoyable. Maru was very knowledgeable of wine production and the various wines of the region. The restaurant and winery for lunch was delicious. We stopped at three different wineries all very distinctly unique. It was a great day!

It's an excellent option to see different attractions around Santiago all in one day, combining an extended visit in Valparaiso with a short look at Viña del Mar and wine tasting. Our expert guide, Dani, not only explained us the stuff we visited but provided us with a lot of background information on the whole country of Chile.

A perfect day with an excellent guide. Beautiful images, interesting places, a lot to learn. The wine excellent as well!

All very well coordinated. Super punctual and friendly, the best thing to enjoy in Chile
