    Pasta e Vino

    Posted by matttheboy 3 May 2008

    Fantastic restaurant on Cerro Concepcion - all pasta and gnocchi dishes and a great wine list. Highly recommended.

    My wife and I are keen wine drinkers. We have travelled extensively most of the major routes of the established wine growing regions - New Zealand, Napa, Bordeaux, and South Africa (the Stellenbosch region is simply fantastic).

    I have to say that there are always new things to learn and new experiences to be had. After cruising South America with the Holland America Line we landed and Valparaíso and spent three days visiting these two extensive valleys.

    Casablanca is within easy reach of the port and is best known for its cooler sea breezes which encourages excellent pinot noirs and sauvignon blancs.

    We were treated to a wonderful lunch with the Villard family and went on to Casa del Bosque, and the Veramonte wineries. All were first rate.

    The Maipo Valley is where the cabernet action is and world-famous names such as Concha y Toro and Almaviva reside.

    We were guided by Tim Robertson of Robertson Wine Tours who proved outstanding in his knowledge and choices.

    We wish we had had a chance to stay a little longer and check out Chchapoal Valley. We stayed at La Hacienda Los Lingues which was excellent, if a little expensive.

    Will definitely be going back for more. Enjoy.
