Argentine Roast Masterclass, Wine Tasting & Vineyard Lunch

About this experience

This experience combines two of the great symbols of Mendoza and Argentina: wine and roast. It is not just a tasting or lunch, but a participatory experience where travelers are part of the local tradition.

After pick-up from the hotel, participants visit a boutique winery in Mendoza to enjoy a guided wine tasting. Then the fire ritual begins, where they will learn about cooking with firewood, Argentine cuts of meat and traditional roasting techniques.

The experience includes a practical class in traditional empanadas, a regional mince accompanied by Argentine mate or vermouth and active participation in the preparation of the roast.

The day ends with a lunch between vineyards accompanied by selected wines, water and non-alcoholic drinks. Small groups and direct contact with local hosts make this activity an authentic way to discover Mendoza.

Things to do in Cuyo

Guide

  • The snow-streaked summit of Aconcagua rising above a dry Andean valley

    Guide

    Aconcagua, and what it takes to walk in

    At 6,961 m it is the highest mountain outside Asia, and most people who see it do so from a car park on Ruta 7. The trek to Confluencia and Plaza de Mulas is the honest middle ground.

  • Route 7 running west out of Uspallata between bare Andean ridges

    Guide

    The Alta Montaña road, Mendoza to the border

    Route 7 west out of Mendoza climbs 3,000 metres to the Chilean border past Potrerillos, Uspallata, Puente del Inca and the Aconcagua lookout. What to stop for, and what the day actually costs you.
