The Best Grape Harvest Festivals in Mexico

Published August 7, 2022

Mexico’s wine regions are getting ready to celebrate the transformation of grapes into wine. Find out about the best harvest festivals in Mexico and enjoy the richness of this beverage.

The Ensenada Grape Harvest Festival is 30 years old. In 2022 they will take place from July 30 to August 21 under the theme: “The sustainability of the wine valleys.”

The Comité Provino Baja California is responsible for this festival, considered the largest in Latin America. This region produces the most wine in the country.

For three decades, the festivities have been an opportunity to showcase the goodness of Ensenada’s terroir and promote wine culture and the work of 80 winemakers in the region.

“The idea is to relate two concepts that seem to be opposites: conservation and development. That is to watch over the conservation of the environment and promote conscious, intelligent, and sensitive management of natural resources. And thus generate a harmonious development, above all, where the vocation of the area and wine tourism coexist,” he explained.

During the festivities, there will be a Wine Show where a B2B business meeting will be organized with the Baja California wine sector.

The tradition of the Wine Show, the event that gave birth to the traditional Wine Harvest Festival, will be maintained. Seventy-eight wineries will participate with tastings of more than 150 wine labels, distributed in bars by grape variety, not a winery. There will also be gastronomic samples from 60 regional restaurants.
