Festival, which in the 2011 edition will be called “The Faces of the
Harvest.” On bFebruary 17, /bfrom 12 noon, a tent will be set to distribute

the region. bAt 6:00 pm,/b an artistic team of 18 dancers and

Flor Destéfanis, will present the “foretaste of the wine harvest” in
Buenos Aires, which will also include the traditional “Grape Trading”. /div

The “Grape Trading” is one of the highlights of the event, a centennial
celebration that has been part of the tradition, dating back thousands
of years, when young and beautiful women got together to tread the
grapes celebrating a bountiful and successful harvest. This time, the
idea is to relive those moments with four beautiful women of our land. /div
