From August 12 to September 9 around eight wineries in Guanajuato will harvest their vintages in the municipalities of San Miguel de Allende, Dolores Hidalgo, San Felipe and San Francisco del Rincón, for which winemakers and the state government are expecting at least seven thousand visitors that will leave an economic spill of approximately 19 million pesos (1.1 million USD).

In a press conference, businessmen from the wine sector in the state and a spokesperson from the Ministry of Tourism reported that in this fifth edition of the “Vendimias” (grape harvest), other vineyards of the state with a long history have joined the event for the first time, such is the case of “El Lobo” wine products and spirits.

Tourism Secretary Fernando Olivera Rocha commented that winemaking activity has grown significantly, considering that five years ago there were only 60 hectares of grape cultivation, while today we are talking of 350 hectares and 30 independent wineries.
