Tacama is the best-known of the Ica wineries and the easiest to visit. The estate sprawls across irrigated valley land a short drive north of town, with vineyards, palm groves, and a colonial-era hacienda at the centre. Tours run several times a day, taking visitors through the vineyards, the old pisco stills, and the wine cellars, and ending with a tasting.
The pisco is good across the range, but the unaged Quebranta and Italia varieties are the standouts. Tacama also produces some respectable wines — unusual for Peru — including a Malbec and a sparkling rosé. The hacienda restaurant serves criollo lunches and is worth staying for if you have time.
