Cousiño Macul Wine Tasting in Santiago: 150-Year Vineyard Tour

One of Chile's oldest vineyards sits inside the city, not outside it.

Cousiño Macul is a wine tasting at a 150-year-old vineyard in the middle of Santiago where you walk the premium vines, tour the historical cellars, and taste three of the house's highest-quality wines with a live English-speaking guide. The vineyard is reachable by public transport and welcomes children from age one, so families and visitors without a car can book without arranging separate logistics.

The Experience

Cousiño Macul sits in central Santiago, which means you don't travel outside the city to taste wine here. A live English-speaking guide meets you and walks the property—the premium vines first, then down into the historical cellars where the winemaking happens. The tour moves at a pace that lets you ask questions and linger; the vineyard's 150 years of practice shows in how they handle groups, keeping the experience personal instead of rushed.

You taste three glasses of the vineyard's highest-quality wines during the visit. The guide explains what you're tasting and why each wine matters to the house, but the point is the tasting itself—standing in the cellar or among the vines with a glass in hand, not a lecture. Children from age one can come along, and public transport stops nearby, so you don't need a car or a separate ride to get there and back.
