Vine and Wine Museum, Wine education center in Cafayate, Argentina.
The Vine and Wine Museum is a wine education center in Cafayate focused on two main areas: wine labeling, geography, and regional production methods. Scientific laboratories on site support research into local winemaking practices.
The museum was established in 2011 in a former winery building linked to Cafayate's wine heritage. It was created to document and share the winemaking tradition that has defined the region.
The museum shows how wine is made in the Calchaqui Valleys and what this tradition means to the region. The displays reveal how winemaking has shaped local identity and daily life here.
Visitors can move through permanent and temporary exhibitions using a virtual guide system for navigation and support. A gift shop in the museum offers local products and materials to take home.
The building houses one of Argentina's earliest printing presses, the Imprenta de la Patria, a rare example of the country's early printing technology. This historical machine is part of the permanent exhibition and offers insight into the region's media history.
