Región norte

Argentina’s Northern wine region is characterized by the altitude of its vineyards, among the highest in the world, growing at heights that range from 1,000 to 3,000 meters above sea level in colorful valleys like the Valles Calchaquíes, in the province of Salta.

In addition to its altitude, another distinctive feature of this region is the scarce rainfall and dry and warm climate, with very high average temperatures and sandy soils that favor easy drainage.

Its main regions include Cafayate, Tinogasta, Santa María and Belén. Home to the ancient Calchaquíes and Diaguitas, this land boasts thousands of years of history.

Among the special varietals of this region is Torrontés, which is grown mainly at the Cafayate Valley, in Salta.
