They. Go. There. &amp;nbsp;And most of the ahem, haters, haven&amp;#39;t. &amp;nbsp;If you think about the relative youth of the country&amp;#39;s industry (post-Pinochet) and the age and intelligence of the people who are making the wines now, I think there is amazing wine to be found…but you do have to go looking for it. &amp;nbsp;And if you&amp;#39;re lucky enough, you get to look for it in Chile. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
