The landscape of Argentinian wine

Wine has been made in Argentina since the 16th Century and it holds more massale selection vineyards and ungrafted vines than any country in Europe. These vines are pre-phylloxeric and have been preserved, partly, thanks to Argentina’s economic and political isolation during the 20th Century. The wine regions in the foothills of the Andes mountains are graced with well drained, rocky, limestone and sandy soils, relatively cool climate and permanent sun - the ideal conditions for organic farming and high quality low-yielding vines.
This session, led by WSET Honorary President and Managing Director of Bodega Catena Zapata, Dr. Laura Catena, covers the climate and topography of Argentina's wine regions and the traditions of organic farming practices.
