Chile's Valle Central, a verdant valley tucked between the Andes and the coastal mountain ranges, has a mild climate and moist soil perfect for grape growing. Made up of four distinct wine regions, Maipo, Rapel, Curico and Maule, the area is criss-crossed by well-traveled wine roads. At the northern end of the valley is Maipo, the oldest of Chile's wine regions, famous for its Cabernet Sauvignon. At the opposite end is Maule, which still grows Pais, the first grape brought to South America.

There’s a story behind every bottle and at *La Cava del Barrio* we are passionate about sharing them with wine lovers and aficionados. Located in the heart of Barrio Italia, Santiago’s bohemian shopping neighborhood, ours is a store devoted to showcasing the work of independent (or “boutique”) winemakers – the stuff you won’t find in a supermarket. So do drop by and experience the best in wines!
Christopher and his friendly associates run a cozy boutique wine shop on one of Santiago's hippest streets. This is a great place to stop for a lively chat and perhaps a taste break while out and about in Barrio Italia. For such a tiny shop, they offer an exceptional selection from small scale Chilean wineries, with many wines that are unavailable at larger chain stores or on supermarket shelves. Be aware that "boutique" here does not mean everything is priced for wealthy drinkers. There are fine bottles in the 8,000 - 12,000 peso range, including even rare varietals (in Chile anyway) like Albariño and Petit Sirah. I also love their tasting events, typically on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, when producers present and pour their wines in the sunny, comfortable mezzanine restaurant area. The only negative is a dispute with the restaurant downstairs about opening bottles bought at La Cava to accompany a meal. I hope by now they could settle on the corking fee or otherwise make a deal that benefits both businesses. La Cava del Barrio offers something for every taste and price point. Winos will certainly be intrigued by what they discover here!

Fantastic spot for an evening jaunt with a great selection across restaurants and bars with a sprinkling of gift stores - plus a late night McDonald's in case the night turns into day while you're here.
