1.All Day, Small Group, Luxury Wine Tour with Gourmet Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,040 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $240Our pick

Review of Mendoza’s luxury small-group wine tour, with Malbec tastings, three to four wineries, gourmet lunch, hotel pickup, and Uco Valley views.

“We had a wonderful wine tasting experience. We visited Bodega Familia Blanco, Atamisque and Andeluna. Familia Blanco was good to visit as it shows how well a sustainable and organic wine can be. We even tried an unfiltered wine there. Familia Blanca’s wine was close by Qatar to be served during the World Cup on the flights. We wished we could bring more back. We had lunch at Andeluna with wine pairings. The food was exquisite. We booked the experience through Trout and Wine.”
