About this experience

This experience brings together the best of Mendoza wine in a single day: visit two wineries of different styles — one artisanal and one industrial — and an olive oil factory with tasting included. During the tour, travelers enjoy a paired lunch in a winery, with local products and wines selected by the sommelier. Bodegas López, Villafañe and Argentia have been chosen in Maipú, noted for their history, quality and their own identity. After lunch, continue exploring the Wine Roads, visiting a second winery and an olive mill surrounded by olive groves, fruit trees and vineyards. In the area it is possible to know artisan wineries such as Cavas Don Arturo or Cecchin, and renowned mills such as Centenario, Laur and Pasrai, always with the mountain range as a framework. The tour includes two guided tastings and a full experience to learn about wines and olive oil.

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.
