The zones chosen for our vineyards were exhaustively analyzed
in order to determine their potential for high quality wines.
Among the studies performed; flakes,analysis of feasibility
and salinity were done, being the results amazingly promising.
At the same time, Ugarteche's vineyard, to more than 1.000
feet above the sea level, was relying on more than 30 hectares
of vineyards planted in 1971, which are ideal for the production
of high quality fruit. The following year, 1998, Doña
Paula was in full expansion and plantation of vineyards
in the acquired surfaces.
