San Antonio Winelands

Depart Patagonia for the fertile winelands of the San Antonio Valley.

Tucked away in the Cordillera de la Costa mountain range separating San Antonio and Santiago and only two and a half miles (4km) from the Pacific Ocean, the San Antonio Valley is Chile’s most coastal wine region with a very specific microclimate. The fruit ripens slowly here thanks to the cool ocean breezes from the Pacific, creating a distinctive flavor to the region’s wines. Consider a bike tour through the vineyards, or a helicopter ride.

La Casona at The Matetic has ten stylish and spacious rooms which blend comfort and elegance, all featuring en suite bathrooms, and a private terrace overlooking the gardens or vineyard.

Tour through the wine cellar with a tasting of four wines from the Ultra Premium EQ line, or cycle through the property along avenues of grape vines.
