Grapevines are grown at altitudes ranging between 1,800 and 3,000 masl (5,900 and 9,849 feet, respectively) in the Calchaquí Valley, one of the highest valleys in the world, which this province shares with the provinces of Salta to the north and Catamarca to the south. The areas of Amaicha del Valle, Colalao del Valle and Quilmes, where the vineyards are, belong to the Tafí del Valle department, which, with 14,933 inhabitants scattered over 2,741 km2 (1,060 sq mi), is the least densely populated area in the province: 5.4 people/km2 (14.04 people per sq mi).
