Resumen:
On naturally fermented beverages production, such as high quality wine, the use of auxiliary non-renewable energy for higro-thermal conditioning of building and barrels, today is almost mandatory. Field research studies on wineries in Argentinas main wine productive region -the province of Mendoza- have been conducted. Mendoza is situated in the Southern Hemisphere near the Andes (32º40SL, 68º51WL, 750 m.a.s.l.) and has a continental dry-temperate climate with hot summers and cold winters that result an excellent Malbec grape among other delicate varietals.This paper presents results in envelope characterization of three winery typologies by amount of exposed surface and materiality and the assessment of their possibilities of self-climatic regulation. A first approach to strategies, feasible to be used on each case studied, in order to reach specific indoor temperature and humidity requirements for the three main production stages (fermentation, breeding and storage) by using passive architecture are also presented.
