Artisanal Winery "El Catador": Without a doubt, the most popular winery for national and foreign tourists visiting the lands of Ica, winner of national awards thanks to its original products such as the semi-prepared Pisco Sour and the fine Pisco Cream. It is located in the Tres Esquinas hamlet in the district of Subtanjalla.
Lazo Museum-Artisan Winery: While it is true that the Piscos, Wines and Cachinas are the main attraction of this tour, it is worth highlighting that the Lazo Winery keeps in its authentic Spanish cellar (wine cellar) from the 16th and 17th centuries, not only its wine products, but also another additional attraction: A rustic museum implemented spontaneously in the same cellar, where you can see collectible pieces such as mummified trophy heads, ceramics, goldsmith's work, remains of cloaks from pre-Hispanic cultures and other pieces such as weapons of all kinds and from all periods; also paintings and stuffed animals among other collectible artifacts. It is located in the Camino de Reyes hamlet.
Tacama Industrial Winery: Located in one of the oldest hacienda houses in the valley. It was built in the 16th century and has colonial architecture. It produces excellent quality wines and piscos. When the Spanish arrived in Peru, they introduced the vine and its spread quickly. Carabantes created the Tacama vineyard in the oasis of Ica, which is the oldest in Peru. The vineyard has a total area of 180 hectares and is located in the Ica Valley, a fertile oasis surrounded by deserts 300 km from Lima and 400 meters above sea level. It is one of the most important in the country.
