Optional Excursion Recommendad: Mendoza Sunset

A few years ago, watching the sunset in a winery, with the unique landscape of Mendoza combining the vineyards and the imposing Andes Mountain range in the background, became one of the most popular tours for visitors to the province.

In this program, pleasure is combined through the senses with majestic landscapes and an excellent gastronomic offer, which can vary from a picnic or a snack to a full gourmet dinner, all always accompanied by a beautiful harmonization of wines from the winery chosen for this moment. Mendoza has very marked seasons, and during the summer, the sunset over the Cordillera alleviates the heat. A little fresh air, a fantastic sky of red and orange colors, and the best places in Mendoza have attractive programs, an spectacular combination of pleasures.

We offer you some options of wineries that carry out these programs, so that you can take advantage of this experience, contemplating fantastic landscapes, tasting wines, refreshing drinks and appreciating the best gastronomy:

• Séptima

• Renacer

• Kaiken

• Andeluna

• Gimenez Riili

• Trez wines

• Otaviano
Day 5 Uco Valley
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Uco Valley

Today we will visit the Uco Valley, a wine region by essence. We will visit Salentein and Andeluna and we’ll have a gourmet experience harmonized with exceptional wines.

Located in the heart of the Uco Valley, Salentein is one of the most historical and yet modern wineries in Mendoza. It has one of Argentina’s largest scale productions, yielding millions of bottles annually, that are sold and consumed around the globe. Salentein aims to make the best Argentine wines using the best of Old World and New World winemaking styles, all while maintaining respect for the people and terroir.

When walking through the winery, we will notice it is designed in the shape of a cross. This design of Salentein’s entire property is meant to be both spiritual and practical, intriguing the visitors while moving wine production along. When entering the underground cellar, people almost get lost among the 5,000 oak barrels. A very special and interesting tasting is in store for us here.

We continue for lunch at one of the great rising stars of the region: Bodega Andeluna. The building would look quite at home in a remote part of Texas as a hunting lodge. Situated at the foot of the Andes just outside of the town of Tupungato in the Uco Valley, Andeluna has magnificent views of the mountains. The huge windows of the dining room are designed to take advantage of the effect, allowing us to enjoy the view as much as the food. The kitchen is entirely open for viewing from the dining area, and it is remarkable to see the creativity of these chefs in action. Here we will have a multi-course wine tasting lunch including the top label Pasionado. Then we go back to our accommodation.

Aldo, the father, runs the Malbec cloning program, and his sons Mariano and Leo run the winery and are responsible for the sales, respectively. Lovely people producing lovely wines! Start off with a guided tour of the winery with one of the members of the Biondolillo family or the winemaker and end up on the outstanding terrace. We then guide you in the challenge of blending five red varietals to make your own tailor-made blend. Enjoy stepping into the shoes of a winemaker for a day with the owners of the winery and along the way discover yourself and your palate in this unique experience.
