STORYLINE:

Chinese President Jiang Zemin left Chile on Saturday to fly to neighbouring Argentina - the second stop of his twelve day tour of Latin America.

His visit to Chile ended with a tasting of Chilean white and red wine with the Chilean President, Ricardo Lagos at the Santa Rita vineyard just south of Santiago.

The Chinese premier was given a complete briefing on the development of Chile's booming wine industry after which he toured the vineyard's cellars.

The Chinese leader tasted samples of white and red export wines.

He looked more tired than the previous two days, but still relaxed and smiling.

He seemed apparently unfazed by the continuing diplomatic standoff with the United States over the collision of an American spy plane and a Chinese jet fighter.

As during his busy second day in Chile on Friday, Jiang made no comments about the standoff.

After meeting Jiang the day before, former Chilean President Eduardo Frei told reporters that he "expressed my solidarity to President Jiang" for the airplane's collision, from which a Chinese pilot is still missing.

Twenty four U-S airmen from the other plane involved in the collision, a spy plane, are still being detained by Chinese authorities

From Argentina, Jiang was to fly to Uruguay, Brazil, Venezuela and Cuba.
