Bodega Hinojosa winery is a traditional producer in Mendoza’s Uco Valley wine region of Tunuyán, established by Don Silvestre Hinojosa in 1962. When Don Silvestre first bought his 122 hectares of land people thought that he was foolish for trying to plant vineyards due to the rocky soil. Little did they know that the soil characteristics, along with the altitude of 1,200 metres above sea level, would be an asset to his wine production.
Today, Hinojosa continues to produce their classic everyday wines, including the popular local line of Don Silvestre single varietals which are often bought on a visit to the winery.
