Although the Mendoza area has a moderately dry climate, irrigation techniques capture snow-melt runoff from the Andes Mountains, which allows vineyards to grow many of the most sought-after grapes in the world. Learn about how a desert was turned into an oasis by means of canals and irrigation ditches.

The system was originally created by the indigenous Huarpe people but is now run by a computer, allowing Argentina to be one of the top wine producers in the world despite its dry climate.
