Program details

Mention Mendoza to any Argentinian and they will think ‘wine’ and this private tour of the region’s wine heartland will offer you a tantalising taster of the region’s signature product. The tour takes you to three well-known wineries from a selected circuit, where you can explore the facilities and, of course, taste the goods.
