Torrontés is aromatic in a way that suggests sweetness and then finishes dry, and the version grown here at around seventeen hundred metres is the one the grape is known for. The altitude is not a detail: the sun is fierce, the nights are cold and the swing between them is what puts the aromatics in the glass.
It is the surprise of any tasting here: floral and grapey on the nose and then clean and dry in the mouth. People who think they do not like white wine tend to change their minds in Cafayate, which is most of why the town exists on the tourist map.
Start with this one
The vineyards sit far higher than Mendoza and the ultraviolet at that height thickens the skins, which is where the colour and the aromatics come from. The reds, mostly Malbec and Tannat, are correspondingly dense.
Why it tastes like that
Most are within a short drive of the plaza and several are walkable, which makes an afternoon here far easier than in Mendoza. Bookings are still worth making for the smaller ones, especially in the harvest weeks around February and March.
Walkable, and worth booking
The town and the road are at Cafayate tours, the other wine region at Mendoza wine tours, and the northwest in full at Salta tours.

Every quote we send lists this in writing, trip by trip. As a rule, this is how a Northwest package is built.
Hotels selected and checked by our team; private transfers between airports, hotels and excursions; excursions with English-speaking local guides; entrance fees to the national parks and the Quebrada de Humahuaca sites listed in your itinerary; daily breakfast and the meals marked day by day; a local WhatsApp support line for the whole trip.
International flights to and from Argentina; travel insurance; meals not marked in the itinerary; personal expenses and gratuities; optional activities, which we price in writing beforehand. The Buenos Aires to Salta or Jujuy flight is quoted separately or included depending on the package, and your quote states which, with the amount, so the total is clear before you book.
Summer rain can cut the gravel roads towards Cafayate or Iruya for a few hours. Our drivers check each stretch with the provincial road service every morning, and when one is closed we run the loop the other way round or move that leg a day. Wherever the schedule allows, we rebook the highlight inside your trip at no extra cost.
