Origin of Wine in Maipu with Roast from Mendoza

About this experience

This tour offers a complete experience of the origin of Mendoza wine, combining historic wineries, wine tradition and regional cuisine in one day. The tour includes the guided tour and tasting in an emblematic winery of Maipú: Bodega Trapiche on Sundays or Bodega La Rural on Tuesdays and Thursdays, allowing you to know two different approaches to Argentine wine, either through a century-old winery or the Wine Museum with its historical heritage. The experience continues at Bodega Santa Julia, where a guided tour and tasting are held before enjoying a regional lunch in Casa del Visitante, surrounded by vineyards. The menu highlights handmade patties made by a national champion and a traditional Argentine roast, accompanied by wines from the winery, breads and olive oils produced by their own. With transportation included, a guide in Spanish and a relaxed pace, this tour offers an authentic immersion in wine culture.

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.
