Photographer’s Note

Mendoza has close to 1200 wineries and a great thing to do if one visits this beautiful province is to take a day or two and visit a number of wineries.

This particular photo was taken at Catena Zapata one of the premier wineries.

Argentina's wine industry booming as teh country keeps producing excellent vintages. This photo was taken in Winter, hence the naked vines.

The background shows the impressive Andes mountains which supply this arid region with much of its water as it rains less than 30 days a year.
