In the Atacama-edge Elqui Valley — a UNESCO-protected stargazing destination — the harvest festival celebrates both pisco distillation and the valley's emerging table wines from Muscat, Syrah, and Carménère.

Insider Tips for Chile Wine Festivals

Fiesta de la Vendimia Casablanca

Kingston Family Vineyards' Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc are the region's cult wines — their boutique winery is worth a separate visit. The afternoon sea fog that rolls in from the Pacific is visible from the vineyard — it's what keeps the valley cool.

Elqui Valley Harvest & Pisco Festival

Book a ALMA or Mamalluca Observatory night tour the evening before the festival — the clearest skies on Earth are directly above these vineyards. Gabriela Mistral, Chile's Nobel laureate, was born in Vicuña — her family house is a museum.
