highest vineyard

The grapevine can also thrive at very high altitudes. The highest vineyards in the world are located in Tibet at 3,563 metres above sea level and in Argentina at 3,111 metres. However, the examples listed below are absolute exceptions. The ideal conditions for viticulture in terms of altitude and latitude are found in the so-called vine belts. The environmental conditions such as soil type, climate and weather are described under the keywords vine and viticultural suitability. In any case, high-altitude wine-growing regions are hardly affected by climate change.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
