Cousiño Macul Wine Tour Santiago: 3 Tastings Historic Cellars
Taste three wines inside one of Chile's oldest vineyards, steps from downtown Santiago
Cousiño Macul is a boutique vineyard in central Santiago where you tour the vines, walk the historical cellars and taste three premium wines with a live Spanish-language guide. The tour runs 90 minutes and keeps groups small enough that the guide can focus on each person's questions about the winemaking process and the Cousiño family's 150-year history.
Step-by-step itinerary
Vineyard tour and wine tasting
- Visit historic Cousiño Macul vineyard
- Tour premium vines and cellars
- Taste three high-quality wines
The Experience
Cousiño Macul sits in the middle of Santiago, which means you skip the drive to wine country and spend your time tasting instead. The tour starts in the vineyard itself—you walk through the premium vines and then move into the historical cellars where the wine ages. A Spanish-speaking guide leads the whole route and explains what you're standing in front of: the barrel rooms, the aging process, the decisions that separate one wine from another. The cellar visit is the core of it; that's where the story of how long this vineyard has been here actually lands.
The tasting comes in two parts. Three wines are poured during the tour as you move through the property, so you're tasting in the place where the wine was made. Then three more wines are tasted in a dedicated tasting session afterward, giving you a full picture of what Cousiño Macul produces at its highest level. The guide's job is to make sure you understand what you're drinking and to answer questions—the vineyard prioritizes that personal attention over moving groups through quickly.
Public transportation stops are nearby if you're coming from downtown Santiago. The whole experience takes 90 minutes, which fits into a morning or afternoon without eating the rest of your day. Infants and small children can come along in a pram or stroller, and the tour suits all fitness levels since most of it is walking at a normal pace through the vineyard and cellars.
What’s included
- Tour of the premium vineyard and historical cellars.
- six wine tastings (three during the walk, three in a dedicated tasting session).
- live guide in Spanish.
- access to the winemaking story and the Cousiño family history.
