Jaure Winery is located 40 km away from Mendoza City. Built in 1928,
the original winery had a 7,900,000 liter producing capacity which
was drastically reduced to 1,400,000 liters of outstanding quality
fine wine production. Its solid structure enabled Mr. Jacinto Jaure
to remodel it in order to adjust to the modern concept of wine
growing....
At the age of 20, Jacinto Jaure arrived to the US in the 60īs,
looking for adventure, new cultures and different lifestyles.
Leaving behind his beloved hometown – Mendoza, he would begin
his long journey towards a productive future. He worked
diligently in various fields, in the hopes of making his dream
come true. With time and effort, he became acquainted with
American habits, idiosyncrasy and lifestyle. He narrated stories
about his beloved Mendoza, its vineyards, its mountains and its
wines. He would also explain how wine was produced and drunk
habitually and how it was considered a noble, pure and natural
beverage. The existing wine-drinking habits in the US at the
time were quite different from the present ones. Wine would be
served in some restaurants and bars and not consumed by families
at the dinner table.
