About this place
Base yourselves among the wineries of Luján de Cuyo or the Uco Valley, where tastings come with mountain panoramas and lunch stretches shamelessly to five courses. February and March bring the harvest; November has spring sunshine and quieter cellar doors. Hire a driver for the day — the distances are big and the pours are generous.
