Well, they will NOT let you anywhere in the winery without a tour, except the gift shop and restaurant. So that was too bad. I ordered pizza, and it was a gloppy mess of gooey cheese. Very soggy crust. Not good at all. A long trip for a sad experience overall.

We stuck around and tried some of their wines and enjoyed a selection of cheeses that were amazing! The tour is so interesting. I won't spoil it by describing other than the grounds and cellars are worth the trip alone and the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. They do tours in English, spanish and portuguese all at different times so pay attention to that when you sign up. Plan at least 3 hours for your visit. You'll probably want to stay longer than that. Salut!

Before arriving I thought I was lost because I could not understand how that would be a winery in the middle of the city, but it was, and it is really beautiful. The staff here was so sweet and I tasted some really really good wines at a fraction of the cost of those in California. I'm talking $10-$20 bottles that are absolutely fantastic. You will enjoy this place.

I enjoyed the wines here and getting to tour a winery that, unlike the ones in CA, wasn't built in…read morethe past 20-50 years. There's almost 150 years of history behind this place, and the facilities and wines show that. What made my visit even more enjoyable was doing it through La Biciclete Verde (https://labicicletaverde.com/tour/bike-wine-tour-cousino-macul-vineyard/), which pairs a tour of the winery with a bike tour of the vineyards, including a tasting under the trees and a tasting after the tour. Wines: I loved the Sauvignon Gris, which I'd never tried before. It tasted like a crisper and even less sweet Sauv. Blanc. I really enjoyed the Chardonnay, which is unusual for me. I found the Syrah to be very good. But my favorite was the Lota red blend, which I had an opportunity to try in their wine bar, and absolutely worth the ~$15 for a glass (the bottles retail for about $80). Facilities: With that 150 years of history, there are buildings here that have survived from day one, severe Chilean earthquakes notwithstanding. The wines aren't aged in the original cellars anymore due to a mold that's taken hold in them, but because of Chile's antiquities laws, all of the original fermentation vessels remain, as well as endless rows of barrels down in the dungeons. There's an impressive combination of the new (modern PLC-controlled stainless steel processing equipment) on grounds hosting some 80+ year old vines that are still watered by redirected streams from the Andes. The People: Our guide Adriane was very informative and gave the tour in a Spanish that I could completely understand (the Chilean dialect can be difficult to those of us so used to the Mexican variety). The wine bar staff were very helpful in answering additional questions, and of course, providing that lovely, decanted Lota red. Getting There: An easy 30 min Metro ride from greater central Santiago, followed by a ~$5 cab ride, which is even cheaper if you get off at the right stop. And for leaving, an employee was giving ~$1.50 rides back to the Metro in her Chrysler minivan.

We decided to do the tour in English, but they offer it in spanish and portugese as well. There was no one else on our English tour, so it became a private tour! The guide, Felipe, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of our questions, and made us feel very welcomed. We did the "premium" tour, which is a basic one, but there are many options and levels you can choose from. We were able to try three different varieties, and ultimately bought some bottles at a discounted rate. The food in the little restaurant was very good. We just did a tapas style snack with a cheese plate, the melted cheese, and a bottle of wine. The staff in the bar area was very friendly as well. We did not have a car, so we used public transport to get back to the metro station. IT was easy, but if you are unfamiliar with the area, it could be a bit of a daunting task. Overall, I would happily do this experience again if I find myself in the Santiago area.

Free WiFi available. Very touristic driven. There is a nice restaurant where you can do more wine tasting if you like. ! Totally worth it.

Food is amazing and totally worth it. I had the ossobuco and it was absolutely fantastic, falling off the bone, melting in your mouth delicious! Their wines are also delicious. We did the historical tour plus tasting, and they served 4 of their signature wines. All super smooth, delicious. They sell most of their production internally to Chile. Their wine is fantastic: dry but smooth. I highly recommend the tour as well, you get to learn about the property, all the owners and how it got to what it is today. Highly recommend it visiting the Santa Rita Winery if you ever find yourself in Chile.

We originally were…read moretrying to go to Concha y Toro for a tour, but we had a very tight schedule due to work, so I started looking for an option inside the city and found this place, and I'm glad I did. They have set times for group wine tasting in a big auditorium where you not only do the wine tasting, but also get to watch some videos from experts talking about the wines you are trying. However, the fixed times were not good for us, so they also have the option of choosing to do the tasting in the wine store at anytime during the day. They have 3 different tasting available depending on which region you are interested in. We chose the Colchagua region which is the one with the highest rated wine, and it was wonderful. The sommelier that took care of us (Lorena) was very knowledgeable and gave us a great amount of information about the wines, regions and history on Chilean vineyards. We also ordered a couple of charcuterie boards to accompany our tasting, and the quality of the meats and cheeses was great. Overall, I highly recommend this place. You can also stay for lunch or dinner if you have the time after your wine tasting. They have a good food selection, and they have indoor and outdoor seating. Cheers!

Emiliana Organic Vineyard is a gorgeous spot and well worth visiting…read more This was my first visit to a winery, so I can't compare it to any others, but I think I picked an awesome first one to visit! While I didn't go on the wine tasting tour (not with children in tow), my family and I visited the wineshop and peruse the vineyard independently. We had to check in at a guard gate to enter, and wind our way through tons of grapevine fields. Another station guarded the parking lot. After this, we were able to wander as we pleased without supervision or anyone telling us what we should be doing. The property is gorgeous with tons of plants and greenery, a nice breeze and the mountains in view all around us; this made for altogether a quiet and peaceful experience. The openness allowed my children to happily run wild, alongside the chickens and pheasants grazing on the lawns around the wine shop. We watched the Alpacas in their stone-walled keep and even went inside the (also stone-walled) organic garden bursting with vegetables, herbs and fruit trees. The wine shop building itself is stunning in the beauty of its design, both inside and out. Inside on the first floor, wines and other goods are for sale, including a tiny Patagonia-brand clothing/gear section! The windows are surrounded by a ton of tall, striking flowers, and we were able to watch Large Chilean Hummingbirds close-up and in action feasting on these flowers. We purchased our wine and peered at the view from upstairs before heading out to the massive back porch and patio area of tables and chairs. I drank a coffee out here; unfortunately, the separate cafe/restaurant had already closed (we arrived in the mid-late afternoon). On the way back to the parking lot, we took pictures and my children even climbed some trees. Thanks for a great visit, Emiliana!
