Historical Santa Cruz, in the Colchagua Valley, lies in the heart of the rich agricultural area of central Chile, distinguished as the "world's best wine region 2005." The valley is home to the first La Ruta del Vino (wine tasting circuit) in Chile, which includes many of the country's best wineries.
Each winery boasts its own history and individual charm. Here, long family tradition, a great deal of price and the latest technology combine to produce some of the finest wines in the world today. Your time in the Colchagua wine country promises to be a luxurious discovery and learning experience.
Finish a day of tasting and touring with elegant accommodations at the colonial era Hotel Santa Cruz, just off the historical Plaza de Armas in the center of town. The hotel boasts first-class accommodations and a popular museum displaying Chilean art, stained glass and an antique car collection.
