The experience

If you've landed in Mendoza with a free afternoon or want to skip the standard wine-country routine, this tour moves through four working wineries instead of the usual two or three. You start at an organic producer focused on natural wines, where you taste three labels and see how sustainable farming shapes what's in the glass. Next is an olive oil factory, a deliberate detour from wine alone, where you taste flavored oils, pastas and olives before moving on.

The third stop is where you step behind the counter. At a traditional high-end winery, you participate in the Game of Blend: you combine different varietals yourself to create a wine that reflects your own taste, not the winemaker's formula. It's a tasting disguised as a choice, and it changes how you think about what goes into a bottle. The final stop is a museum winery with deep roots in the region. Here you sit down to a four-course Creole lunch, each course paired with a different wine from the estate, followed by a walk through the facilities to see where those wines are made.

An air-conditioned vehicle picks you up and carries the group between stops. Your guide speaks English or Spanish and moves with you through each tasting. The whole circuit runs 6 to 7 hours. Gratuities are not included.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English and Spanish.

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Youth (13 to 17 years); Child (4 to 12 years); Infant (1 to 3 years): free.

What's the difference between the organic winery and the traditional one on this tour?

The first winery specializes in organic and natural wines, combining nature, culture and sustainable gastronomy. You taste three of their labels. The traditional winery focuses on high-end wines made through conventional production methods, and that's where you participate in the blending session.

Do I get to taste wine at every stop?

Yes. You taste three labels at the organic winery, sample oils and related products at the olive oil factory, blend and taste your own creation at the traditional winery, and then drink paired wines throughout the four-course lunch at the final historic winery.

What exactly is the Game of Blend?

The Game of Blend is a hands-on session where you mix different wine varietals together to create your own blend, tasting as you go. You're combining wines the winery provides to arrive at a flavor profile you prefer, then tasting the result you've made.

Is this tour suitable for someone visiting Mendoza for the first time?

Yes. The tour covers four distinct winery styles (organic, traditional, heritage and museum), so you see a range of how wine is made and aged in the region. The guide in English or Spanish walks you through each stop, and the blending session and paired lunch give you hands-on moments, not just observation.

How does the tour handle dietary needs or preferences at lunch?

The lunch is a set four-course Creole meal paired with wines from the estate. Dietary restrictions or preferences are not mentioned in the tour details, so confirm any needs directly with the operator when you book.
