Real del Padre is a town in San Rafael County, Mendoza Province, Argentina, located in the west-central part of the country. It is characterized by a mild arid climate and an agrarian economy, surrounded by vineyards and orchards, and is part of the important wine region of Mendoza.
The town is situated in the plains of the eastern foothills of the Andes, at an altitude of about 600 meters above sea level, with low annual precipitation and a reliance on irrigation systems to support agriculture. The large temperature difference between day and night and the abundant sunshine provide ideal conditions for viticulture.
The economy is centered on winemaking, with local wineries producing quality wines such as Malbec. A harvest festival is held every summer to showcase traditional folklore and handicrafts. The architectural style is a blend of Spanish colonial elements and local characteristics, preserving the tranquility of the countryside.
Real de Padre is directly accessible via the RN 143 highway, about 40 kilometers from the city of San Rafael. Visitors can participate in winery tours, wine tastings or head to the nearby Artuel River for outdoor adventures, making it a secluded place to experience Argentina's wine culture.
