​Cerro Pintado

A forgotten Andean vineyard. Reimagined as one of South America’s most extraordinary regenerative estates.

The Place

Cerro Pintado is a historic estate in the Calchaquí Valley of northwest Argentina. At nearly 2,000 meters above sea level, it lies within one of the world’s most remarkable wine-growing landscapes.

Why Now

A rare convergence of place, timing, and global demand.

● Wellness is redefining luxury. Travelers increasingly seek restoration, nature, movement, and meaningful experiences rather than conventional luxury.

● Regenerative hospitality is emerging. Vineyards, farms, and conservation landscapes are becoming destinations in their own right, blending hospitality with stewardship.

● The Calchaquí Valley remains under-discovered. One of the world’s highest wine regions offers extraordinary landscapes and culture, yet few properties present it through a contemporary, world-class hospitality lens.

● Historic vineyards with established water rights and contiguous acreage in exceptional locations are increasingly scarce. Opportunities to shape a flagship regenerative estate become rarer with each passing year.
