Leaving Lima in the morning, driving south to the Ica region (4 hrs ride approx.), where you`ll spend the night. Arriving in Ica the first stop is at Viña Tacama, the oldest vineyard in South America. In the 1540`s, Francisco de Carabantes created the Tacama Vineyard, which is the oldest in Peru, and from where the grapevine was disseminated to Chile & Argentina.

The original objective of Tacama`s vineyard creation was to supply wine to different religious orders that were recently established in The city of Kings (Lima, capital of the Peruvian Vice Royalty). Since then, its consumption was associated with health and a better quality of life, far away from diseases associated with poverty. After that in 1776, a protectionist measure from Spain prohibited Peruvian wine exports which promoted its own wine distillation, and that is how PISCO was created, a typical Peruvian grape liquor that was a different option for Peruvian Winemakers. (visit and tasting 2 hours approx.)
