Understanding the unique characteristics of wine regions, especially those that are developing or expanding like Querétaro, requires a key element known as terroir. In this regard, we have conducted a survey of 69 vineyards in the state, covering a total area of 525 hectares. Additionally, we have studied the composition and texture of the soils, analysed rainfall patterns over a span of 23 years, examined the topography and watershed basins, and compared common climate indices with those of other regions in Europe and the USA, such as Winkler, Huglin, Grown Season Temperature, and Cold Indices. As a next step, we are calculating various vegetation indices, such NDVI, for multiple vineyards throughout the year 2022 to assess the adaptability and development of different grape varieties, and determine which ones thrive best in the soil and climate conditions of the region.
