THE CIRCUIT IS INTERNAL TO THE MOST IMPRESSIVE LANDSCAPES IN THE COUNTRY TO EXPLORE THE PLEASURES OF BACCHUS. SUN, MOUNTAINS AND VINEYARDS MIX ON THIS JOURNEY THAT LEAVES A UNIQUE FLAVOR IN MEMORY.

IT SEEMS THAT WINE WAS A GODSEND. ACCORDING TO A PERSIAN LEGEND, A BIRD DROPPED SOME SEEDS AT THE FEET OF KING DJEMCHID AND SOON FROM THE LAND THE FIRST GRAPES EMERGED. THESE WERE COLLECTED AND STORED IN THE ACTUAL WAREHOUSE, BUT THE FRUITS BEGAN TO FERMENT QUICKLY AND, DUE TO ITS INTENSE SMELL, EVERYONE BELIEVED THAT IN THE PALACE KEPT POISON. THE DISCOVERY JUST MADE IT A COURTESAN OF THE HAREM WHO HAD LOST THE MONARCH'S FAVORS. DESPERATE, SHE SEARCHED FOR THAT DARK JUICE WITH THE INTENTION OF COMMIT SUICIDE, ALTHOUGH THE EFFECT WAS THE OPPOSITE: THEY FOUND HER DANCING AND SINGING WITH HAPPINESS.

SO, WINE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A COMPANION OF SORROWS AND JOYS. THE ROMANS QUICKLY UNDERSTOOD THIS WITH THEIR BACCHANALIA (CELEBRATIONS IN HONOR TO THE GOD BACCHUS), BUT WE ARGENTINES HAVE NOT BEEN LAZY EITHER WHEN CELEBRATING THE VIRTUES OF THE VINE. WE NOT ONLY HAVE OUR HARVEST PARTY, BUT WE HAVE A JOURNEY DIONYSIAN WHERE TO GO ON PILGRIMAGE IN SEARCH OF EXPERIENCES SPIRITS: THE WINE ROUTE.

WITH THE ANDES MOUNTAIN RANGE BEHIND, VITICULTURE IS PRACTICED THROUGH A CORRIDOR THAT BEGINS IN THE PROVINCE OF SALTA AND REACHES THE PATAGONIA . OVER ALMOST 2,700 KILOMETERS, THE LANDSCAPES CHANGE, THE CULTURES TOO, BUT THE DEMAND FOR GOOD WINE REMAINS. EACH REGION HAS ITS OWN STRAINS AND TECHNIQUES, WHICH TRANSLATE INTO CHARACTERISTIC FLAVORS AND, ABOVE ALL, IN DIFFERENT PROPOSALS.
