These green, fertile valleys offer a stunning contrast to the arid
mountains of the northern regions. Here, the mighty Andes begin to fade
and the altitude drops to a more modest 900 feet. By pushing the
southern boundary of its vineyards as far as the 42nd
parallel, Patagonia makes wines in a cool-climate tradition, even
showing success with traditional sparkling wine and Pinot Noir.
Continuous sun exposure and mild breezes are excellent for growing healthy grapes and producing wines with good color and aroma concentration, slow tannin evolution and a perfect level of acidity. These are blended into top quality wines.
Wines from this region have deep color concentration, are intensely fruity and full-bodied and have great personality. The cooler climate leads to more elegant red wines, such as the great Pinot Noir.
