Wine from Aconcagua Valley

The Aconcagua Valley experiences wet winters but a long, dry growing season. The summer days are frequently sunny and intensely hot, helping to ensure ripened fruit. In addition, the narrow Aconcagua valley experiences influxes of cool air from both the Pacific Ocean and the snow-capped Andes Mountains. These cooling influences help to maintain good acidity in the grapes, which fosters an attractive balance in the final wines.
