 Kathy and Randy entering the winery |  They make only 3000 bottles per year, |
 Carmenere grapes | We returned to Santiago for 24 hours before leaving for home tonight. After a good night's sleep, today we toasted the end of our South American journey with a visit to Paseo del Vino, a charming family-owned winery whose owner established it on a single acre of grapes, as a passion project. He makes just 3,000 bottles a year (both red and white) and loves introducing visitors to Chilean wine culture. We learned about winemaking and tasted some of his vintages, followed by a traditional meal. This evening, we will transfer to the airport for your flight home to the U.S. |
 Pasei de Chocio (Sweet Corn and Meat Casserole) |  Terri, Mel, Lyn, Steve, Carol and Karen |
