The list includes Biodinámica Cosmos, Alpamanta, Domaine Bousquet, Superuco, Finca La Anita, Ojo de Agua, Andeluz Organic Wine, Cecchin and Riccitelli Wines, spread across Luján de Cuyo, the Uco Valley, Maipú and Mendoza City. Each applies its own criteria and certifications, so ask which practices they follow and how much of their production they cover.

What to look for
- Ask which certifications and practices they apply, and what share of production they cover.
- Ask to walk the vineyard, not just the tasting room: that is where the farming approach shows.
- Wear comfortable shoes and country clothes: the walk may cross bare earth between the rows.
