Valparaiso Region, with its unparalleled agroclimate and soil diversity, was the perfect backdrop for this groundbreaking event. Stretching 4,000 kilometres from Easter Island to the Andes Mountains, this region is home to the renowned wine valleys of Aconcagua, Casablanca, Marga Marga, Quilpue, Villa Alemana, Lo Abarca-San Antonio-Algarrobo and Leyda. A particular highlight was the Aconcagua Valley, with a rich winemaking tradition dating back to 1870. Visionary Don Maximiano Errázuriz planted the first French grapevines here, inspiring many other wineries in the valley including Narbona Wines, Viña Peumayen, Viña Sanchez de Loria, Viña Von Siebenthal and Viña Baron Knyphausen at Llay-Llay. Key seminar topics included: Strategies to combat climate change Creating new products from surplus grapes and wines Promoting biotechnological advancements to preserve the genetics of ancestral vineyards Attracting investment in real estate and wine tourism, with a focus on thematic hotels and lodges Wine Innova Tech 2024 showcased the unity of Valparaiso’s wine valleys in facing climate challenges together. Supported by the Regional Productive Development Committee of Valparaiso and the Viraliza Corfo program, the seminar fostered networking and research, revealing hidden sub-valleys and terroirs. With backing from the Convention Bureau of Viña Del Mar, local tourism departments with allied organizations and media partners, the event was declared a resounding success.  “It’s only through working collaboratively that we can really drive innovation and sustainability across all aspects of the wine trade!» concluded Max Morales, Senior Project Manager [email protected] Read: https://lnkd.in/eSzpYzs4 #WineInnovaTech #WineTech #ClimateChange #Valparaiso #ChileWine #Innovation #Investment #WineTourism

🍇✨ How to master winetourism to draw visitors to your destination The success of a region is not just measured in the quality of its wines but in the artful orchestration of an entire immersive experience. What does it take for a region to truly excel at winetourism and become a beacon for culture-seekers and wine enthusiasts alike? Let's uncork the secrets! 🍇 Terroir and Vineyard Landscape The foundation of winetourism excellence lies in the nurturing of vineyards that embody the essence of the region. Beyond the grape varietals, it's about crafting a terroir that tells a story—a tale of soil, climate, and traditions that contribute to the unique character of the wines. 🍷 Beyond the Cellar Door Regions that excel at winetourism understand it's about creating curated experiences—vineyard picnics with panoramic views, guided tours that unveil the winemaking process, and intimate tastings that immerse visitors in the nuances of each pour. 🌱 Sustainable Viticulture Sustainability isn't just a buzzword; it should be a cornerstone of winetourism. Regions committed to balancing traditional winemaking practices with innovative, eco-friendly approaches not only produce exceptional wines but also attract visitors seeking authentic, responsible experiences. 👥 Community Engagement A thriving winetourism region is one where the local community is intricately involved. From family-owned wineries to community events celebrating the harvest, community engagement adds a layer of authenticity that enriches the overall narrative. 🚀 Elevating the Region's Story Exceptional regions understand the power of storytelling. Through strategic marketing, they weave a narrative that goes beyond the tasting notes, showcasing the region's history, cultural heritage, and the passion of those who bring the wines to life. 🌐 Collaboration and Innovation The true excellence of winetourism is often revealed in collaboration. Regions that excel foster partnerships with local businesses, tourism boards, and cultural institutions. Innovation in events, festivals, and experiences keeps the offerings fresh and enticing for visitors. What's your favourite wine region, and why? We recently did a deep dive in the south of Sweden, the northern frontier of wine-making a came away in awe over the quality and sustainable practices.
