The Calchaquí Valleys region is probably one of those few places in the world that deserves to be admired, more than understood. The very nature of this location awes the visitor: among the lush vegetation of the Yunga forest, the rivers and rocky mountains, there emerges, unexpectedly, a stretch of desert where magic happens. Standing at an ideal altitude of 1,800 meters (5,500 feet) above sea level, with its ever-present sunshine and perfect temperature range, the environment is perfect for the creation of high-end wines.It is in the heart of this valley where El Esteco is located, a vineyard plantation that treasures in its grapes all the spirit of the region. An unexpected and hidden place capable of producing great wines, unique in the world.Founded in 1892 by French immigrants David and Salvador Michel, it is one of the pioneering wineries in the art of Argentine winemaking. Favored by the region and the dedication of those who work in it, it has been recognized from its origins internationally for the high quality of its products.
