The Andes wine region is known for its Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and moderate rainfall in winter. The Andes Mountains provide a shading effect that reduces the amount of rain and humidity in the area, resulting in ideal conditions for growing high quality grapes.
The most common grapes in the area are red varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Carménère and Syrah, and white varieties such as Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Wine production in the area is mainly in small and medium-sized wineries, some of which have stood out for their quality and international recognition.
In terms of gastronomy, the Andes region offers a variety of typical Andean dishes, such as charquicán, locro, asado de cordero, and pastel de choclo.
