Argentine Wine
in Cafayate and Salta

If you love wine, visiting the many wineries in Argentina can prove to be a pleasure to any palate. Wine tours can take you through several regions or focus on just one area. Depending on the amount of time, vineyards can be explored from a day to two weeks.
If you have One Day
So you have decided that you want to take a sip of the wines of Argentina, head to the Mendoza region. This vicinity is the largest wine-making province in Argentina and offers countless options for the visitor. Spend time in one winery, exploring all the related wine-making activities or choose a few to stop in for a tasting. To finish off a day of wine, enjoy a dinner of local fare at one of the many restaurants.
If you have Two to Three Days
Continue to focus on one region if you have a few days. Mendoza is the perfect place for a wine-infused journey. With numerous hotels and rooms in vineyards, the traveler can choose to sleep in the atmosphere of choice. One way to plan a few days includes spending a day in one specific area of the region, for example, Maipu. This eastern hamlet is offers a taste of several wines from Cabernet Sauvignon to Merlot to the local success of Torrentes. The wineries and restaurants in Mendoza are plentiful so finding a place to experience Argentina wine is easy. Presented with several days, the variety of wine, ambience, and wine-making process can be the center of quite a few vineyard outings.
If you have One Week
Seven days is enough time to sample more than one region in Argentina. After spending two to three days in the Mendoza section of the country, head north to province of San Juan. The neighborhood of Pocito includes several wineries, small enough to experience the personal touch of wine-making. Two hours south of Mendoza, the city of San Rafael is located. Stay the night in this quaint settlement, constructed around the local wineries. Visiting all the wineries is simple since all are within walking distance of each other.
If you have Two Weeks
A full fourteen days will give you time to drive to the many wineries of Argentina. Beginning with Mendoza, and then traveling through San Juan and San Rafael, a jam-packed week will start a wine-tasting holiday. Following the first week, take a short plane jaunt to the region of Salta. The Salta Province offers an array of accommodations from frugal to luxurious. Cafayate is the village to visit for wine. Plan to spend two days in this region since there are seven wineries, all worthy of visit and tasting. For those who want the intellectual side of wine, do not miss the wine museum Museo de Vitivinicultura, only open on weekdays. Alternatively, you may want to spend about a week touring the wineries in Argentina, and then cross the border into Chile, to enjoy the viniculture of this country.
