Private Luján de Cuyo wine tour from Mendoza with tastings at 3 wineries and a 5-course lunch at Norton in a small group.
“En utmärkt utflykt med mycket kunnig guide och en fantastiskt god och trevlig lunch. Men jag saknade åtminstone ett riktigt bra 'kanonvin'. Generellt var vinerna bra men ganska alldagliga, inga riktiga höjdare eller överraskningar. En trevlig utflykt för turisten men inget för en vinkännare.”

“One of the best explanations and visits that we had, a tip, the big cellars = status, wonderful buildings, plus the quality they have, family cellars = feel at home, welcomed, double attention. We had a tasting in the Cassone family that for me, competes with all the great quietly, Antigal is another that we got stupid with such quality of the wines, the service and the tasting. Now Don Manuel Villafane, it's the best lunch you'll ever have.Auto-translated”

Small-group Maipu wine tastings with lunch or dinner, plus an olive oil factory stop, in Mendoza for about 8 hours.
“The best part of this experience was the lunch in La Casona restaurant. The service, food and wine tasting experience was superb and intimate. We would have loved to purchase bottles of wine from this winery but we were rushed for time by the tour operator, Delores. We then met up with a larger group to tour other wineries for the remainder of the tour. The English speaking guides at each winery were helpful. The olive oil factory tour was awesome.”
