The city
Casablanca is the town in the white-wine valley between Santiago and Valparaíso, about 80 km from the capital along Ruta 68. Founded in 1753 as Santa Bárbara de la Reina, it has the Plaza de Armas and the Parroquia Santa Bárbara in the center. The wineries sit beside the highway, before the town: Indómita, on top of a hill, and Emiliana, run with organic and biodynamic farming. Matetic is in the neighboring Valle del Rosario. The morning fog coming from the Pacific favors sauvignon blanc, chardonnay and pinot noir.
