We, as travelers, know how important it is to experience the gastronomic expression of the places we visit. For that reason, we have prepared an itinerary so you can get to know even more of our cultural heritage and history, while also connecting with the authentic flavors of the region.
Ica, for example, is one of the best places to experience a unique gastronomical side of Peru since it is the birthplace of a famous drink that you surely know about. The Peruvian Pisco is an alcoholic beverage made with grapes, the base of our flag drink Pisco Sour.
The desertic region offers the perfect setting for the production of pisco and wine, where several renowned wineries allow visitors to get immersed in their traditional distillery processes, secrets and sample some of their best products.
That’s the case of the Queirolo Vineyard, a renowned pisco and wine producer, recognized for their top-quality beverages and upscale facilities. If you’re eager to know everything about it, this is the right tour for you.
The famous vineyard dates back to 1877, when the Queirolo family moved from Italy to the city of Lima. The company had its first winery in the district of Pueblo Libre from where they grew exponentially and moved their facilities to Cañete and Ica.
The Queirolo family now owns over 225 hectares in both regions and are dedicated to the mass production of wine with modern processes and pisco, maintaining their nearly 150-year-old tradition untouched.
Currently, the Queirolo Vineyard in Ica is one of the oldest wineries in Peru and offers a total immersion in the history and evolution of the company. Here you’ll get to know the elaboration process of their products and sample some of their renowned drinks.
The tour will take you on a historical journey, where traditions have paved the way to one of the most awarded wines and piscos of the entire country. You’ll also get to have an authentic gastronomic experience, where delicious Peruvian dishes will delight your palate along with the exquisiteness of a Queirolo wine.
