Winery: FAMILIA OTERO RAMOS
Otero Ramos Family Winery was born to honor an ancient legacy which started two generations ago in the lands of Galicia. Towards the end of the 20th Century, Manuel Otero conceived the viticulture and tourism project he had thought of for many years through the experience gathered in this activity. He acquired a significant parcel of land in Mayor Drummond, Luján de Cuyo, at 33º South latitude and situated at an elevation of 900 mts asl., on the eastern flank of the Andes Mountains, with hot days, cold nights and little rain. It belongs to "Lujan de Cuyo" Appellation of Origin. With extraordinary ecological conditions, this place has well deserved the name of First Winemaking Area. The winery has a wine cellar which stores wine in oak barrels and bottles, with mechanisms for humidity and temperature control. Premium wines, the highest technology and the most careful and traditional winemaking practices identify this winery. A delightful rural lodge has been targeted to first-class tourists.
