Viña Santa Rita

The current winery was founded in 1880. Before, this was a ranch, and the place where the Chilean independence leader Bernardo O'Higgins escaped after the defeat against the Spanish at the Battle of Rancagua. Tours need to be booked two days ahead and they include the presentation of the production process, the wine cellars and of course wine tasting.

Getting there: in Alto Jahuel, Paine, some 10 km south of the district
