Bodegas López, Villafañe and Argentia have been chosen in Maipú, noted for their history, quality and their own identity.

In the area it is possible to know artisan wineries such as Cavas Don Arturo or Cecchin, and renowned mills such as Centenario, Laur and Pasrai, always with the mountain range as a framework.
