"1 of the most singular, authentic, and sustainable trips offered in organized travel." ARGENTINA - MendozaA full 70% of Argentina’s wines are produced in Mendoza province. Of those, Malbec is the star. We’ll set off to discover the celebrity status of this grape firsthand, and cycle the glorious landscapes of Andean foothills. Our entrée into Argentine culture is the city of Mendoza, with its sprawling, green parks and heady aura. We cycle out of the city to meet locals inspired by this land – a revolutionary winemaker who put his country on every oenophile’s map, a beer brewer with a worldwide following despite his modest operation, and a trout farmer who invites us to lunch. On the bike, we’ll meander through the prestigious Lujàn de Cuyo and Uco Valley vineyards, stopping to taste their vintages. Along the way, dine on unrivalled local cuisine and relax in luxury lodges, the Andes ever-beckoning. See why Mendoza is listed among the “Great Wine Capitals of the World!” |
