Maipo Valley

The "Classic" Chilean valley is home to the most traditional wineries in the country, including heavyweights such as Concha y Toro. The great advantage of visiting wineries in this place is its proximity to Santiago. You can actually visit the wineries of Concha y Toro and Cousino Macul by taxi. The Maipo Valley is the king of red wine production, Cabernet Sauvignon occupies over 70% of the total hectares planted here. This valley was recently divided into the sub-appellations Alto Maipo and Maipo Island.
