The experience

Five to six hours covers the drive into the Uco Valley foothills, two winery visits, and the return to Mendoza. You start with pickup from your hotel, then head south into the high-altitude vineyards where the Andes frame the landscape. The route itself is part of the tour: the valley's elevation and terrain shape how the grapes grow, and your guide explains this as you travel.

La Azul is a small, family-run winery known for handcrafted Malbecs and Cabernets. You'll taste their wines in an intimate setting and learn how they work the land. Then you move to Domaine Bousquet, a larger, celebrated estate built on organic and sustainable practices. Here the day centers on a gourmet lunch paired with their premium wines: award-winning Malbecs and sparkling wines made from organically grown, high-altitude grapes. The vineyard views from the dining area open toward the Andes, and your guide walks you through what makes their approach different. If either winery is unavailable on your date, the operator substitutes another of similar standing.

The tour runs as a private booking for a minimum of two passengers, and the price per person drops as your group grows. Your guide is live and speaks English, Spanish or Portuguese. Round-trip transport is included. Gratuities are not.
