If you love wines you should visit the Mendoza wine country. I had a great time tasting superb red wines in different wineries. I recommend booking well in advance, I did it through Mendoza Holidays (www.mendozaholidays.com), they offer private tours in excecutive vans, also run an old rural house amidst the vines. Unforgettable experience!!
The idea is to provide, in a few days, a deep understanding of the wine making regions of Mendoza, Argentina as a wine making area. To show the different enterprises dedicated to the production of wines representing each one of the sectors in the area.
They prepare these personalized wine tours for wine lovers from around the world get to know and enjoy the landscapes, vineyards, wines and food that make up Argentinian culture.

My partner and I have just finished a five-day tasting trip in the Mendoza region of Argentina. The trip was fantastic, the backdrop of the Andes is breathtaking, and the wines and cuisine really are world class.
We traveled with this tour operator who specialise in luxury wine and gourmet tours. Well worth the cost.
Stay at Cavas wine lodge - it's a real treat.
We also ate at Vistalba's restaurant which was one of our favourite meals of all time.
The most luxurious restaurant in town, converted from an old winery. Think high ceilings, marble floors, ultra-attentive waiting staff, perfect lighting and ambience, distant music, oh and the food - it's Argentina so there needs to be no explanation. The place is run by a TV chef, but don't let that put you off. Unless you go mad don't expect to pay more £30-40 per head.
