Otronia
Winery Otronia is located in the heart of Patagonia on parallel 45'33, probably the last frontier in the south to grow vines.
The philosophy of our winery is to produce wines that reflect the extreme climatic conditions, typical of the place and the land.
Otronia has 50 hectares of organic vineyards, with varieties such as Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer and Pinot Gris, being one of the southernmost vineyards in South America and in the world.
The cold temperatures, the thermal amplitude, the strong winds and the soils make the wines of Otronia unique in the world having a great aging potential.
