ART & WINE
Part of the Pampa collection of modern and contemporary Argentine art is permanently exhibited in our winery.
This collection began 25 years ago, with the criterion of acquiring works of Argentine art to assemble a corpus, which continues to grow, of art from our country.
It is defined by its local identity, belonging to the culture of a country that is Argentina. It begins with the avant-garde (Pettoruti and Xul Solar), taking all the decades up to the most current art such as Matías Duville and the emerging Valentín Demarco and Nina Kovensky.
