Mendoza: Half-Day Wine Tour with Tastings

We had a really good time on the wine and olive oil trip

I didn't come with high expectations, because I booked the cheapest option that would still allow me to get back into the swing of all things Mendoza wine after a 7-year hiatus. What a pleasant surprise! Comprehensive 5-hour tour with a good contrast between (almost) corporate wine manufacturing (Bodega Lopez) and a more intimate family affair (Don Arturo). We ran into a heavy rain storm after our first stop, and Claudia, our guide, managed to squeeze us into Milllan/Laur's visitor schedule for an introduction to their vinegar-making process. That was a fun & manageable trip for a quarter of the price of the usual full-day tour. Minor nuisance, there is no lunch included, and little time to grab a bite to eat en route. To be fair, this is mentioned on the website, so come prepared.
