We’ll head south and then west along the legendary Route 40 to visit three premium wineries, selected by you or recommended by us. At the first two, you’ll tour the facilities and taste their wines; at the final winery, a multi-course wine-paired lunch awaits.
We’ll first travel west toward the foothills, stopping at a scenic viewpoint overlooking Potrerillos Lake. We’ll then continue south to the Uco Valley, with the Cordón del Plata and the Andes as our backdrop. Upon arrival, you’ll enjoy a multi-course wine-paired lunch at a premium winery.
This time, we’ll head south and then east along Route 40 to visit three premium wineries, selected by you or recommended by us. As on the first day, you’ll tour the facilities and taste the wines at the first two, then finish the day with a multi-course lunch at the third.
We’ll journey across Mendoza’s three mountain ranges, passing through breathtaking and iconic landscapes. We’ll enter the Villavicencio Nature Reserve and cross the foothills to an altitude of 3,000 meters above sea level, with panoramic stops and possible sightings of native flora and wildlife. After crossing the Uspallata Valley, we’ll continue through the colorful Frontal Range, following the Mendoza River, before entering the Andes. There, we’ll visit Puente del Inca (a World Heritage Site) and Aconcagua Provincial Park, with views of the highest mountain in the Americas.
On the return journey, we’ll stop at a unique, little-known spot to enjoy a deluxe picnic paired with wine.
TRAVELER EXPERIENCES
“In March this year, Damián, the owner of MCT, took us on a wonderful trip to the Uco Valley. He had selected three wineries for us: Domaine Bousquet (an organic winery covering around 150 hectares), Bodega Zaina (fine, limited-edition boutique wines from a small family winery), and Bodega Claroscuro, where we also enjoyed a wonderful farewell dinner. And what a dinner it was: an exclusive multi-course meal featuring the best tomahawk steak we tasted anywhere in Argentina. Needless to say, the wine pairing was sensational. Damián made the entire day varied and informative. We immediately felt comfortable and in excellent hands. He shared fascinating insights about the country and its people. We never ran out of things to talk about; Damián is also charming, approachable and thoughtful. We are already looking forward to seeing him again the next time the wind carries us to Mendoza… Thank you so much, dear Damián! (Alex and Manfred from Austria)”

“It was an exceptionally pleasant and unforgettable excursion. Our driver and guide, Damián, arrived at the hotel early and waited for us in the lobby. The tour vehicle was a spacious and comfortable Ford pickup; it was spotless inside and out, making the journey comfortable at all times. Damián was highly knowledgeable and kind, as well as great fun and very witty. Throughout the trip, he shared cultural and geographical insights and answered our many questions, filling the journey with information and laughter. Along the way, we saw beautiful lakes, mountains of extraordinary natural beauty, the remarkable Puente del Inca, and the majestic snow-capped peaks of the highest mountain in South America. We experienced many of Mendoza’s most iconic natural landscapes. We are very grateful for Damián’s company throughout the journey, and we hope many more people will have the chance to enjoy Mendoza’s natural beauty with him. (Zhan from China)”

Years ago, I fell in love with this province: its wineries, the Andes, its landscapes that transform with every season, and those hidden spots that still surprise even those of us who live here.
After years of working in tourism and hospitality, I realized that a great journey is not simply about visiting places. It is about experiencing them, understanding them, and taking a piece of the destination home with you forever.
