Cafayate's vineyards begin around 1,600 meters, where intense sun, cool nights and irrigation shape both Torrontés and red varieties.
A grower-led visit starts among the vines so the tasting has a landscape and farming story behind it.

Experience FAQ
Taste Torrontés in Cafayate's high vineyards
Q01Is Torrontés always sweet?
No. Cafayate produces dry, highly aromatic expressions as well as other styles; the tasting compares how producers handle the grape.
Q02Can we visit during harvest?
Usually, but working wineries may restrict access at their busiest moment, so the format must be confirmed.
Plan with Alex
Plan a Cafayate vineyard visit
Follow Patagonia toward the ice, or take the northern road from vineyard shade to Iguazú's thunder.
Tell me which landscape you keep returning to, and we will build the right Argentina journey around it.
I would travel south for whales, lenga forests and glaciers calving into blue water. I would turn north for Mendoza's vineyards, the white deserts of the Puna and the roar of Iguazú. Both deserve a journey of their own.
