RUTA DEL VINO

RUTA DEL VINO 

Baja’s Valle de Guadalupe, or Guadalupe Valley, produces 90% of all of the wine that comes from Mexico. Although the valley has been producing wine for nearly 100 years, just in the last decade has the region experienced the incredible growth that has turned it into an up-and-comer on the global scene. It’s now become an epicenter of northern Baja for boutique wineries, gourmet restaurants and chic hotels, garnering the attention of publications such as the Wall Street Journal, Condé Nast Traveler and the LA Times.

The wine producing regions of Baja, like wine itself, have gotten better with age. In the past few years there has been an explosion of creative juices flowing south of the border as new and exciting wineries and wines are popping up seemingly overnight. Some have called it the 'renaissance of Baja's wine country' and the excitement is growing.

The Guadalupe Valley just northeast of Ensenada is at the forefront of the Baja wine movement and has over 50 wineries - artisan, boutique, and commercial, both large and small who are producing some remarkable wines. Our guide features an in-depth look at 29 of the wineries. The people of the region are fascinating and they love to share their passion with visitors. So dive in and and discover the magical wine destinations the Guadalupe Valley has to offer!

Casa de Piedra is a modern winery built in the style of an intimate stone farmhouse. Covered in brightly colored bougainvillea and flanked by fields of glorious vines, the exterior of the main building itself is charming and inviting. First time visitors exiting the Tecate-Ensenada highway in Valle San Antonio de las Minas may be in for a surprise when they enter its modest but lovely premises and discover the highest quality modern wine production: computerized processing, a semi-gravitational system and stainless steel tanks. Dedicated wine enthusiasts, however, will certainly not be surprised by this technological excellence and innovation as the wines of Casa de Piedra have become well known within elite circles as the very best that Mexico has to offer.

I learned this week that I really need to study for my exams if I want a really good grade because somethings you just think that exams are going to be easy and they result a little difficult and that´s when we realize that we need to read and study everyday not 1 o 2 before the exam. I also learned that there are a lot of careers involved in tourism and hospitality and that´s great because it generate a lot of opportunities for employment in tourism,travel,hospitality sector and i think that this career is the hit of times and we really need to be interested and innovative if we want to be successful in our lives.

The Reason I´m here


Everything happens for a reason, and that is what i'm going to explain. All my life I thought I was going to study medicine, i dreamed of being a doctor that was my goal, but everything changes and althought since I was little all my family was and is related with business and gastronomy that never catch my eye. I remember when I was a kid my aunts teach me how to cook and bake and i loved that I still do but i never saw my life doing that all my life.
