Get ready to embark on a world tour of wines.

As part of Wine Flights at Graceway Supermarkets, we’re so excited to introduce you to some of the finest wine regions of the world. And while ‘Wine Country’ inevitably brings to mind wine heavyweights such as France and Italy, there are many other regions around the world where grapes grow in abundance and the wine is always flowing.

Our first stop is a world leader in green energy, with 98% of its electricity powered by renewable resources. This tiny South American country is also home to more cattle than people, so it’s no wonder it’s well known for its steak—which happens to pair well with its national grape and flagship wine, Tannat.

Welcome to Uruguay, an up-and-comer in the world of fine wine. With 20,000 acres of land dedicated to winemaking in the Uruguayan countryside, it’s safe to say: this is Wine Country.

Explore the Uruguayan Wine Country

Nestled into the rocky hills of Pueblo Edén—a small, quiet town in the Maldonado wine region of Uruguay—is a picturesque vineyard and winery that embraces the natural beauty of its surroundings with a sustainable approach to winemaking.

This is Viña Edén: a modern winery just 20 kilometers from the southern Uruguayan coast that prides itself on its mineral-rich soil that provides the perfect conditions to grow grapes. The 600-acre family-owned winery benefits from its close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean with cool and dewy mornings followed by sun-soaked afternoons. The result? Unique and flavourful wines, from Chardonnay and Merlot, to Pinot Noir and the country’s signature Tannat—the national grape of Uruguay.

With an ethos rooted in sustainability, Viña Edén not only utilizes solar and wind energy to operate the winery, but it also offers tours of the vineyards via electric buggies, and serves their exquisite wines paired with mouthwatering locally sourced meals.

Graceway Supermarkets is proud to bring the Uruguayan wine country to the Turks and Caicos as the exclusive distributor for Viña Edén on the islands. Whether you prefer red or white, sparkling or Rosé, you’ll find a carefully selected variety of wines to choose from. And no matter which you choose to take home with you, you’re in for an adventure.
