Baja California is Mexico’s wine country and the largest wineries can be found conveniently located near the town of Ensenada. This family fair offering wine, regional foods and live entertainment is located in San Antonio de las Minas, one of the three wine regions in Baja. The mission grape brought over and planted by the Jesuits in the 18th century found its perfect home in an area that compares in climate to California’s Napa Valley. In 1834, Dominican priests began growing grapes at the nearby Northern Mission of Our Lady of Guadalupe, now known by the abbreviated name of Guadalupe Valley, located within the San Antonio de las Minas region. Guadalupe Valley is one of the few places in the world where premium grapes can be grown.
