Located in the Tupungato region of Argentina, approximately 80 kilometers from Mendoze, you’ll find the Bousquet Estate. It sits at an altitude of 1,200 meters, making it one of the highest vineyards in the world. This high altitude gives them an advantage to produce organic wines, as the air currents, climate, and sunlight contribute to riper grapes. The Bousquet family originally owned a vineyard near Carcassonne in the Languedoc region of France. In 1998, driven by his love for Argentina, Guillaume Bousquet’s father decided to sell the French vineyard and move to Argentina.
