Wines of Chile
Vintages from the mountains, plains, and coast.
Geographically, Chile counts as part of the New World, but in terms of its wine, it has a good claim to be part of the Old. Spanish missionaries and settlers planted grapevines there as early as the 1550s—and not just for sacramental purposes, by any means.
Remota in Chile’s Patagonia
A sustainable oasis.
The Remota hotel in Patagonia, three hours from Chile’s Punta Arenas airport and just outside Torres del Paine Park, is appropriately named. Set among fjords, glaciers, and the Señoret Channel, the property’s backdrop is a blanket of wild golden grass, contrasted by cool blue water and South American sky.
Lost in Transplantation
Carmenère at the Viña Carmen Winery in Chile.
There are wine competitions devoted to chardonnay and there are celebrations of zinfandel, but carmenère might be the first grape variety to have an anniversary party.
