Description
The Legend of the 120 Patriots: A Journey to Viña Santa Rita
Step out of the city and into a living chapter of Chilean history. Just 45 minutes from Santiago, at the dramatic base of the Andes Mountains, lies an estate where time seems to stand still. This isn't just a vineyard; it is a National Monument that played a pivotal role in the birth of a nation.
Your journey begins with a walk through a century-old park, where the crisp mountain air meets the scent of ancient vines. As you wander through the gardens, you’ll uncover the secret of the 'Cellar of the 120 Patriots.' Feel the history of 1814 as you stand in the very underground vault where independence fighters sought refuge during Chile's fierce struggle for freedom.
Deep inside these legendary historic cellars, the scent of aging oak sets the stage. You will follow the path of the grape from the sun-drenched vineyards to the bottle, learning the secrets of the Maipo Valley. The experience culminates in a guided tasting of 4 premium wines, ranging from elegant Reservas to Ultra-Premium labels, paired with the stories that made this winery a global icon.
Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or a curious traveler, you will leave with more than just a palate for fine wine—you’ll leave with a piece of the Chilean soul.
Experience the history you can taste. Walk the path of heroes and savor the legacy of Santa Rita
