Most of vineyards are located in the Mendoza Province, in the western central part of the country where the climate is continental, sunny and dry with warm summers and relatively cold winters.This climate requires the irrigation of the vineyards of the valleys and plains from the channels that descend from the mountains.
With vineyards planted at altitudes between 800-1100 meters, the Luján de Cuyo region is known particular for its Malbec which seems to thrive in this region as a mean annual temperature of 15°C.
