We have just spent 3 amazing weeks in Argentina, renowned for its high-altitude, velvety Malbec wines and unique terroir. We enjoyed diverse and dramatic landscapes, ranging from the lush jungles of the north near Brazil in Iguazu (if you have never been, put it on your bucket list!!), to the high desert, cactus, and vine-filled valleys in the Andean foothills, where producers are creating some of the most cherished, revered, and robust wines in the southern hemisphere.
Mendoza was great as usual, offering luxury accommodations with awe-inspiring landscapes alongside epic, luxury wine-tasting experiences and an unforgettable cooking class experience. Northern Salta offered postcard desert scenes, regal Andean condors gliding overhead, colorful folklore, striking red rock formations, even higher altitude vineyards (up to 10,000 feet above sea level), and wine gems in Cafayate (we love love love Bodega Yacochuya).
We even fit in whale watching in Puerto Madryn, which was a sublime and incredible experience, being so close to these majestic creatures.
Our first and final port of call then was the captivating and utterly romantic city of Buenos Aires. This alluring and vibrant metropolis is the birthplace of tango and a pasta lover’s paradise. More than 50% of the population here is of Italian descent, which lends great character to the local cuisine, architecture, and language. We enjoyed amazing tango at Rojo Tango and delicious steak, pasta and deep dish pizza on repeat :)
It was great to visit our existing suppliers and visit new gems like House of Jasmines, we have come back to the office so inspired! If you are looking for a “Best Of” wine, luxury, and scenery tour of Argentina, then drop us a line for more info and your bespoke trip itinerary!
