Itinerary and highlights
Join us in our intimate tasting room for a guided exploration of Argentina's most famous grape.
After a short introduction to Argentine wine, your sommelier will guide you through three carefully selected Malbecs representing three completely different wine regions:
Patagonia – elegant, fresh and mineral
Mendoza – rich, balanced and classically Argentine
Salta – bold, intense and shaped by some of the world's highest vineyards
Rather than simply tasting the wines one by one, you'll compare them side by side to discover how geography, climate and altitude dramatically influence aroma, structure, texture and finish.
Throughout the experience you'll also learn:
why Malbec became Argentina's flagship variety;
how terroir influences wine style;
how to identify regional differences in your own glass.
The experience is relaxed, interactive and suitable for both complete beginners and experienced wine lovers.
You'll leave not only having tasted exceptional wines, but also with a much deeper understanding of Argentine wine than most visitors ever gain.
