Connections for Pisco Wineries and Vineyards

Wineries and Vineyards for traditional Pisco Production is a series of 14 sites for growing vines and producing wine and Pisco, a liqueur obtained by fermenting the grapes.

Vine growing was introduced to Peru by the Spanish for the needs of the Church, but is now famous for the production of this regional alcohol. This ensemble is a testimony of this agricultural, industrial and social practice that has been going on for more than 400 years and has strongly influenced Peruvian identity.
