Who makes it: La Vendimia

La Vendimia is one of the most representative wineries in Peru, in the Ica region, the heart of the country’s viticulture. With a desert climate and fertile soils, this area is ideal for growing grapes destined both for refined wines and for the famous Peruvian Pisco. La Vendimia’s philosophy is based on blending tradition and innovation: on the one hand, respect for winemaking techniques handed down over time, on the other, the use of modern technology to obtain high-quality wines and spirits.
