The Best Boutique Wineries in Argentina
Argentina is famed for its tango, asados and of course, its Malbec, which beckons oenophiles from around the world to visit the vineyards of Mendoza’s Uco Valley and the white Torrontés grape in the Salta Province. Found at the foothills of the Andes, these regions not only grow the famed Malbec, but also cultivate an ever-growing list of thirst-quenching white, rose and red wines.

El Enemigo
Created by winemaker Alejandro Vigil and historian Adrianna Catena, El Enemigo was founded to capture the essence of European immigrants settling in Argentina who wanted to make their own wines. Vigil graduated at the top of his university class in agricultural engineering and became head of the soils division at the National Agriculture Research Institute in Mendoza which set him up for his future career in winemaking. The winery’s Cabernet Franc has been highly recommended year after year by Decanter Panel Tasting and has received rave reviews from Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast.

El Porvenir de Cafayate
Nestled in the Cafayate Valley in the province of Salta is this family-run vineyard. Lucía Romero Marcuzzi, along with her grandfather and the original founder Roberto Romero, decided in 2000 to design a premium winery that would make the very best wines with restored 50 year-old Torrontés and Tannat vines. They also cultivated new vineyards of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah grapes. You must try the crisp white wine, Laborum Torrontés, as it’s bound to impress even the most stubborn red wine drinkers.
