region (seat of the highest peak of América, the Aconcagua),
crossed by plentiful rivers whose waters come down from the Andes Mountain
Range.
The man, through irrigation canals, took profit of this resource and turn this
region into a prosperous and quite suitable place for the development of
grapevines and the subsequent elaboration of high quality wines, currently known

deeper and give birth to imposing gorges such as the "Atuel Canyon"
