Top 9 Wineries in Mendoza You Must Visit

1- Zuccardi Winery

Zuccardi Winery, a unique and special place, is a family-owned winery and one of the most respected and innovative in the country, known for its focus on terroir and sustainability. It was built in 2013 and inaugurated in 2016. The building is a representation of the mountain, which defines both the climate and soils of the region.

It was built with natural elements, using local stones that are round, white, and limestone. It’s made of concrete from the outside in, from the stone walls to the epoxy-free concrete vats where the wines are produced.

The vats and amphoras are the result of years of experimentation in the search for the ideal vessel, eventually leading to a trunk-conical shape that allows for a more natural process in working with the musts and wines.

The winery has three main estates in:

Each estate has its own microclimate and unique soil conditions, allowing for the production of a wide range of wines, from classic Malbec to more experimental blends.

Some of the most popular wines are:

  • Zuccardi Santa Julia Varietals
  • Zuccardi Piedra Infinita Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Zuccardi Q Malbec

They have received significant recognitions, such as the award for Best New World Winery in 2022 by the prestigious American magazine Wine Enthusiast, ranking as the most well-known winery outside of the United States and Europe.

Zuccardi is strongly committed to sustainability, using solar energy to power its operations, recycling water and waste. They are also highly focused on biodiversity, having planted over 100,000 native trees on their properties.

Zuccardi produces award-winning wines and is a popular tourist destination. The winery offers guided tours and tastings, as well as a restaurant and a shop.

The restaurant, “Piedra Infinita,” opened its doors in March 2016. Located in Paraje Altamira, Uco Valley, in front of the majestic Andes Mountains, it has a capacity for 50 guests.

2- Bianchi Winery

Bianchi Winery is a family-owned winery that embodies values of tradition, quality, prestige, innovation, and modernity in Argentine winemaking, always maintaining excellence in all their products.

Located in the historic region of San Rafael and the Uco Valley in Mendoza, Bianchi Winery is considered Argentina’s heritage winery, known worldwide for its long history of producing excellent wines and sparkling wines.

The story began in 1928 when Valentín Bianchi achieved one of his biggest dreams: owning a vineyard and opening a winery, which he named “El Chiche,” meaning “the little winery of great wines.”

Determined to make the best wines in the country, he brought over European grape varieties and adapted them to the climate and soil of the San Rafael region, establishing the family winery that would become a true Argentine heritage: Bodegas Bianchi.

Valentín’s son, Enzo Bianchi, carried on his father’s vision, focusing on innovation and top quality in all their wines. Bold and forward-thinking, Enzo created pioneering red and white wines that set trends in Argentine winemaking. Iconic wines like Don Valentín Lacrado and Bianchi Particular came from his knowledge and intuition.

Enzo’s three children, Valentín, Raúl, and Sylvia, together with their cousins, the Stradella family, continued to build on this legacy, earning international awards and recognition.

Today, Bianchi Winery is a global brand, present in over 40 countries, representing the values and quality of Argentine wine around the world.

With more than 90 years of history and four generations of winemaking, the Bianchi Family keeps the family’s legacy and values alive, crafting unique wines and always searching for new flavors to share both locally and internationally.

You can purchase their wines on their website, learn more about their story, and book a visit to the winery.

 

3- Salentein Winery

Salentein is the first Argentine winery that combines wine, art, gastronomy, and the good life: “We founded a winery, transforming a region.”

The winery is located at an altitude of 1,200 meters, right in the center of the vineyards, surrounded by over 49 hectares of preserved native desert habitat that forms part of the landscape. The western horizon is dominated by the nearby snow-capped Andes, rising over 6,100 meters.

This magnificent winery was designed with both form and function in mind. Its cross-shaped design allows for careful handling of the grapes and wine, reducing the distance that both the fruit and the final product travel during the various stages of production. Each wing of the winery is a small facility with two levels.

The four wings converge in a circular central chamber, similar to an amphitheater, inspired by the classic temples of antiquity.

The underground cellars are located nine meters below ground. From the upper level, the floor of the central chamber features a significant design with strong symbolic content: it is based on the compass rose, with each point oriented towards the cardinal directions, representing its connection to the rest of the world.

There are three tasting rooms: one central room and two side rooms, located in the basement at the same level as the wine cellars.

The beauty and function come together in the Primus Room. This exclusive space is unique in the country and contains 12 French oak barrels of 7,600 liters each, equipped with a controlled cooling system. Here, only during harvests of exceptional quality fruit, the limited edition wine line of Bodegas Salentein is produced.

The three estates range from 1,050 to 1,700 meters in altitude. The San Pablo estate features the highest vineyards in the province and some of the highest in the world. The high elevation of the estates offers two main advantages: access to water and temperature control.

The soils of the three estates vary, but they are generally alluvial and sandy, situated over a bed of stones. These characteristics facilitate permeability and drainage, allowing for regulated irrigation to control both vine vigor and grape quality.

The climate of the estates is continental and monsoonal, meaning it is dry and sunny almost every day of the year. Annual precipitation is low, averaging 204 millimeters, mainly in the summer. It typically snows about three times a year in winter. This climate helps produce healthy grapes without the need for treatments against diseases caused by humidity or insects.

Additionally, the temperature range in the region reaches up to 16°C, contributing to the health of the plants.

Bodegas Salentein’s vineyards are irrigated with pure water from the melting snow of the Andes, sourced directly from streams or underground aquifers. The clarity and purity of this water results in a low pH in the grapes, higher acidity, and wines with more color and aging potential.

The Salentein Restaurant is a magnificent place to enjoy wine and gastronomy with an unparalleled view and natural surroundings. Under the guidance of our executive chef Matías Gil Falcón, the restaurant pairs the best local dishes with our wines.

The restaurant emphasizes local producers from the Uco Valley, respecting local ingredients and honoring the roots of Andean culture. Guests can enjoy a variety of tasting menus or order à la carte, with the option to try all the wines from the winery.

It is open daily from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., with prior reservation required.

For reservations, inquiries, and pricing:

Salentein also offers lodging, with a total of 14 rooms surrounded by gardens and vineyards, a seasonal pool with a view of the Andes, and much more. Guests can enjoy various activities such as:

  • Visit to Salentein Winery
  • Visit to the Killka Art Gallery

Recommended Activities to Enjoy in Mendoza City

Mendoza, the land of sun and good wine, is an unmissable and unmatched destination to enjoy all its experiences, views, and activities in nature with its mountains, tourist attractions, and wineries to visit and enjoy with unforgettable guided tours.

Parque “General San Martín”

The Parque General San Martín is the most important green space in the city of Mendoza and therefo re a must-see in the city.

The park is very popular with locals and tourists. It was designed by the French landscape architect Carlos Thays (the same one who designed the forests and the rose garden in Palermo in Buenos Aires) and has an area of 307 hectares, an artificial lake, children’s playground, and different landscaped areas.

To get to the place and experience it in all its splendor, you will definitely need a vehicle. The main entrance where the famous gate is located is on Av. Del Libertador, corner Av. Bulogne Sur Mer.

The entrance gates to Parque San Martín are a true gem of wrought iron, originally designed for the palace of a Turkish sultan.

Caballitos de Marly

In the access roundabout to the park is Los Caballitos de Marly, a replica of a famous work by the French sculptor Guillermo Coustou called Les Chevaux de Marly, which can currently be seen at the Louvre Museum.

Lago del parque San Martín

With a size of 1000 meters long by 100 meters wide. The Club de Regatas de Mendoza, one of the most important and oldest in the city, operates on the lake, where rowing enthusiasts practice their sport. In the southern sector of the lake is the Isla de los “Enamorados” which is accessed by a beautiful bridge. On the north shore is the Fuente de los Continentes and the Rosedal.

Since 2017, it has become one of the venues for the Copa Argentina.

Other places to visit in Parque San Martín:

Natural History Museum
Aboriginal Park
National University of Cuyo

Walk through Aristides Villanueva

Mendoza lives at night on Aristides Street, inviting both Mendoza residents and tourists from all over the world. After your tour of San Martín Park, we recommend going to this beautiful street full of bars and restaurants.

Arístides Villanueva Street is the most visited and renowned street in the city, on which the young night of Mendoza has been established. It offers restaurants, bars, Irish Pubs and much more, next to each other. It is also very close to the center, but we recommend you go by vehicle to explore more and see other places in the area. It is ideal as a “previous” to then go dancing and is prepared to receive the foreigner speaking their own language. Calle Arístides has shine and elegance and when the weekend arrives, there is no room for anything and fun is guaranteed.

The sidewalks of the avenue are completely occupied with the tables and chairs of the restaurants and during the weekends with small street shows. The Antares and the William Brown Irish bar are a must on a night chosen to have a good time.

Beer continues to be chosen to share a local or regional bite. But good Mendoza wines are taking over those spaces since the winery boom is changing tastes and customs. If we talk about wines and tastings, Cabrera Charif Wine House has its own wine bar and wine cellar.

In Mendoza, everything is close. In summer, when the days lengthen and the heat lengthens the time spent away from home, good drinks at Arístides are a good option.

Carlos Alonso Museum

The Carlos Alonso Museum is a mansion for Mendoza culture. On the traditional Avenida Emilio Civit, in the City, stands the impressive mansion, one of the most representative in the history of the province.

It was built in 1912 by Víctor Babino, at the request of Luis Stoppel, a diplomat and businessman born in Chile and based in Mendoza. Its imposing interior invites you to explore every corner, where, currently, the works of renowned Mendoza artists are exhibited.

This space for the visual arts has 2 sectors: Space A and Space B, where samples from different artists are presented.
The Stoppel Mansion can be visited from Tuesday to Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Are you ready to experience the magic that Córdoba has to offer you on your visit? Don’t wait any longer and start planning your trip. Don’t forget to add the following destinations to your agenda!

1- Córdoba Capital

What better way to start your journey than by visiting one of Argentina’s most iconic cities? It is none other than the capital of the province.

Unfortunately, this city can sometimes go unnoticed by tourists as they prefer to explore other areas of the province. However, this gem has a lot to offer you, so it deserves to be explored closely.

Don’t miss out on discovering its history, magic, and charm. In Córdoba, we can find surprising colonial architecture, which is reflected and can be observed mainly in the surroundings of Plaza San Martín, where the commercial center is also located.

In front of the square, you will also see emblematic buildings such as the Cabildo and the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption. To enrich yourself with culture, these architectural wonders will make you feel as if you were transported back in time to that era.

If you are attracted to handicrafts, you cannot miss the Paseo de las Artes, a handicrafts fair where you can take a tour of the stalls. Don’t forget to bring cash in case you like a local product and want to buy it as a souvenir. It also offers the option of enjoying the typical food offered by the vendors. If you enjoy watching shows, you can appreciate the street performances of dancers and artists.

Another incredible option is El Paseo del buen Pastor, which will invite you to enjoy a delicious meal and appreciate the show of dancing waters that will undoubtedly leave you amazed. If you like the night, you have found the perfect city, as it has a great nightlife full of bars and nightclubs. Of course, if you visited Córdoba capital, to take away the complete Cordoba experience, you cannot leave without trying a good Fernet with Coca-Cola listening to cuarteto.

2- Villa Carlos Paz

This city, known as “The Pearl of the Sierras”, is located just 30 minutes from the city of Córdoba. Located in the Punilla Valley, on the shores of Lake San Roque, it offers multiple options for water sports enthusiasts.

We recommend not missing the chance to take a catamaran ride along the entire length of this body of water. You can find options and choose the one that best suits your needs; if you want to have fun, some tours include musical shows, to dance and drink delicious cocktails that will be offered on your ride.

But if on the contrary, what you want is tranquility and enjoy the ride, other options offer delicious food and a serene atmosphere so you can relax, enjoy and take pictures of the beautiful postcards. But that’s not all, there’s more!, in this town, as its name indicates, it is surrounded by the majestic mountains, which will also allow you to expand your range of activities.

If you like heights, hiking and getting a privileged view of the city, don’t miss the chance to climb Cerro de La Cruz, the highest peak in Carlos Paz, which is 1000 meters high and has an easy access that will allow you to reach it comfortably.

For a more enriching experience, we recommend taking the guided tour, in which they will not only place you in the history of the city and Lake San Roque, but if you are dazzled by the vegetation, they will also provide you with information about the local flora and fauna. To be able to enjoy all these activities to the fullest, we recommend visiting it in the spring and summer months.

We will also delve a little into the urban life of this city, to be able to know it from another perspective that will surely delight you. We will start the tour on Avenida San Martín, the most important street in the city, where you can find a wide range of gastronomy.

You cannot leave here without having known and taken a picture of the iconic cuckoo clock, considered the largest in the world. As its name suggests, a friendly bird located in the clock will tell you the hours of the day.

This charismatic city stands out for its nightlife and the variety of options it has to offer. If you are looking for night fun, the casino could be one of the best options for you, as in addition to its incredible gaming machines, it is located in a location surrounded by bars and theaters so that the fun never stops.

Another option is the nightclubs, considered to be among the best in the country. We leave you below some that you should go to know and of course, dance all night: Keops, Molino Rojo and Khalama, each one has its own peculiarity that makes it unique.

We hope you have a lot of fun in this charming city!

3- La Falda

If you want to spend an unforgettable few days, we recommend visiting this destination, which perfectly combines nature, entertainment, and culture. This town is located in the Punilla Valley. It is located 67 kilometers north of the city of Córdoba. Here we will leave you your key itinerary of essential visits before you continue on your way to the next destination.

We will start with the outdoor activities that you can enjoy among the hills and trails and the natural jewels that you must know. Your must-do walks are definitely through Cerro La Banderita and El Camino del Dragón, which have different difficulties and will take you a different amount of time. We tell you a little about what each one is about so you can choose the one that best suits your needs.

If you really enjoy hiking, the first option is for you. This route can be a bit more complex, as it has an intermediate difficulty and around 4 hours of climbing, but the incomparable view from its viewpoint compensates for everything.

You will arrive much faster, in 1 and a half hours walking, and if you want to arrive even faster, you can take your vehicle. On our website, we offer you the best vehicles so you can get there quickly and safely.

On the high plain Pampa de Oláen, many more adventures await you among waterfalls, rivers, and caves. For a unique underground adventure, we recommend visiting El Sauce. Another incredible natural attraction, full of fun, that you cannot miss is the Las Siete Cascadas complex.

If you visit La Falda, you cannot miss its horseback riding, which we recommend because it will be a unique experience to explore all the landscapes in an unforgettable way.

Now, take note, because on your cultural walk you cannot miss your tour of the mythical Museo Hotel Edén, which in its early days gave rise to La Falda. You can have a guided tour during the day or at night according to your preference, and if you are a sports enthusiast, do not forget to visit the first Argentine sports museum.

Due to its special climate, you can visit the province at any time, but we recommend visiting it during its regional festival season, so as not to miss the opportunity to taste and delight in each of its local dishes in a great celebration full of music and dance.

Your Complete 4-Day Guide to Salta Argentina

Your Complete 4-Day Guide to Salta

Salta, known as “Salta la linda”, is located in the northwest of Argentina. It is known as one of the most picturesque provinces in the Republic of Argentina for its culture, history, and of course, incredible landscapes. If you are looking to connect with nature and culture, this 4-day itinerary is for you:

Day 1

In the morning, we recommend going to Cerro San Bernardo. This is a popular tourist attraction due to its viewpoints, stunning views of the city, and handicrafts market. You can get there by car or on foot, but the cable car is the most popular option. The cable car departs from Parque San Martín and is open from 9am to 6:30pm. After exploring the hill, we recommend staying for lunch at “El Baqueano”, a restaurant serving contemporary Andean cuisine.

In the afternoon, we recommend starting from Plaza 9 de Julio to begin exploring the center of Salta. Then, visit the Museum of High Mountain Archaeology, located opposite Plaza 9 de Julio. It is known worldwide for its collection of the Children of Llullaillaco, the bodies of three Inca children over 500 years old in perfect condition. The museum is open until 6:30pm.

After that, you can stay to explore the pedestrian area, visit the Cathedral Basilica, the Church of San Francisco, and Parque San Martín. To end the day, we recommend staying in the center of Salta to sample its typical dishes, such as empanadas, humita, tamales, locro, etc., at “Doña Salta”.

Day 2

We recommend starting the day with breakfast at “El café del convento” to start the day energized and ready for a new adventure in the heights.

Have you heard of trains in the heights? The Train to the Clouds is the third highest in the world, reaching 4,220 meters above sea level. If you want to experience it, the most convenient option in terms of price and comfort is to rent a car (rent with Rentennials) to get to the train. The train ride is 1 hour and the cost of this option will be approximately USD 105 for foreigners and USD 77 for Argentines. It is best to leave early, as you must be before 3:30pm and the journey from the capital of Salta to the train takes approximately 2:30/3 hours. We recommend that you be prepared for the altitude, stay hydrated, and wear a coat, as the weather is very unpredictable. Make your reservation in advance, as it is a very popular place.

Day 3

After a day full of adventures, we leave you a day of relaxation in your itinerary to enjoy nature. Known for one of the highest-temperature hot springs in the world (from 20 to 90 degrees), “Las Termas de Rosario de la Frontera”, located 180 km from the capital of Salta, are one of the major attractions of Salta. Not only for the aforementioned, but also for hiking in the trails, recreational activities, massages, and healing techniques. You can go for the day or stay overnight at the Termas Hotel, which offers a wide variety of services and activities. The hotel has a restaurant, so you don’t have to worry about bringing food.

Day 4

To finish your visit to Salta, Cachi is a town located 163 km from the capital of Salta. It is considered one of the cities with the most historical and cultural value in the entire Republic of Argentina. In this town you will find an UFO landing site, archaeological sites, a historic church, and unique urban architecture. The town is not the only highlight, the road from the capital of Salta to Cachi is also scenic and you will be able to make several stops, such as Quebrada de Escoipe, Cuesta del Obispo, and Valle Encantado. We recommend that you leave early, as although it is not many kilometers, it is a mountainous road. When you arrive in Cachi, you cannot miss the famous brewery and pizzeria “Ashpamanta Restaurante Don Rogelio”, and if you want something more sophisticated, you can visit Bodega Colomé for wine tasting.

Don’t forget to book your Rentennials rental car so you can have an unforgettable experience in the northwest of Argentina. This 4-day itinerary will allow you to see the best places in Salta. Start planning with us to get around comfortably and safely.
