Salta, Argentina

Salta, in Argentina’s northwest, is renowned for its extreme-altitude vineyards, some of the highest in the world at 1,600–3,000 metres. The region’s intense sunlight, cool nights, and dry climate create wines of remarkable concentration and freshness. Salta is the birthplace of Argentina’s iconic Torrontés, celebrated for its floral and citrus aromas, and also produces vibrant Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon with deep colour, ripe fruit, and elegant structure.
