400 Conejos

Located in the heart of Mexico's wine country, the 400 Conejos winery is a prominent producer in the Guadalupe Valley region. Founded in 2007, the winery takes its name from the 400 stone rabbits that are believed to have been carved on nearby hills by indigenous people. Today, these rabbits serve as a symbol of good luck and prosperity for the winery and its wines.

The Guadalupe Valley, located in the Baja California region of Mexico, has been producing wine since the late 19th century. However, it was not until the 1980s that the region gained recognition for its high-quality wines. The Mediterranean climate, with warm days and cool nights, provides the perfect conditions for growing grapes. The valley's unique terroir, with its fertile soil and cool ocean breezes, also plays a crucial role in creating the distinctive flavors of the wines.

The 400 Conejos winery is known for its dedication to sustainable and organic practices, making it one of the few certified organic wineries in Mexico. The winery's commitment to sustainability is reflected in its use of natural farming methods, such as composting and crop rotation, to maintain the health of the vineyards. The winery also uses solar panels to power its operations, further reducing its environmental impact.

One of the 400 Conejos' standout wines is the 400 Conejos Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is made from hand-harvested grapes grown in the winery's own organic vineyards. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, resulting in a rich and complex flavor profile. The 400 Conejos Cabernet Sauvignon has received numerous accolades, including a silver medal at the Decanter World Wine Awards.

In addition to its award-winning wines, the 400 Conejos winery also offers a variety of experiences for visitors. Guests can take a tour of the vineyards and winery
