Due to elevations between 3,600 and 4,200 feet above sea level, the vineyards of Uco Valley endure summers with diurnal temperature variances of up to 55°F from day to night. This extreme climate makes the vines work harder, driving colour and fruit intensity into the grapes. It is here one finds Bodega Los Helechos, surrounded by our dedicated network of small family growers in Gualtallary, La Arboleda, Vista Flores and other top subregions of Uco Valley.
