The Secretary of Tourism of the State of Guanajuato applauded the winegrowers for produce high quality wines and to continue positioning -by caring for the land, professionalization and continuous innovation- the destination worldwide.
Guanajuato is “Land of Wines”. SECTUR has promoted the state’s oenological segment at a national and international level, through this value proposition in the local promotion strategy within the entity.
The wine in Guanajuato is has produced for more than 400 years and, recently, municipalities of the entity have resumed their winemaking vocation, gradually consolidating vineyards and wine-producing houses in the region.
Today the entity has 34 vineyards registered in the Grape and Wine Association and there is a record of 9 vineyards not included in the association that, together, have 385 hectares harvested and expansion projects of 120 hectares in the short term.
Within these vineyards open to the public is Casa Anza, located in San Miguel de Allende; Cuna de Tierra and Tres Raíces, located in Dolores Hidalgo, which together with all the vineyards allow the development of the wine industry, a factor that implicitly recognizes agribusiness as the engine of the economy and the assembly of sectors in the value chain.
Concours Mondial de Bruxelles continues to offer consumers a guarantee: to recognize and differentiate irreproachable quality wines from all over the world and in all price ranges.
