The Wine Route
The Wine Route
The Valle de Guadalupe, located in the state of Baja California, is recognized as the leading wine-producing region of quality wines in Mexico.
For several decades now, it has been known as
‘The Wine Route’.
As you travel through the Valley, just about 40 minutes from the Pacific Ocean, you will witness spectacular vineyards where history and culture merge to create unique sensory experiences.
The success of wine grape cultivation in the Valle de Guadalupe is attributed to Baja California’s semi-desert climate, along with cold marine currents. The convergence of these factors results in a Mediterranean-style climate, ideal for viticulture.
It was the Dominican missionary Félix Caballero who, in 1834, founded the Mission of Our Lady of Guadalupe of the North, one of whose main activities was wine production. Over time, the small wineries were abandoned when the Mexican government decided to expropriate Church lands. It was not until 1888 that the first large-scale winery was established.
At the beginning of the 19th century, there was a significant influx of Russian immigrants who fled their homeland to escape military conscription and settled in the peaceful and serene Valle de Guadalupe. They went on to acquire land and began harvesting grapes for winemaking purposes.
Thus, the Valle de Guadalupe is a place of great beauty and charming landscapes, its wines a true art form, and its old-world charm undeniably captivating. Without a doubt, the Wine Route is a unique experience.
