I went to Renacer on a private tour and had a great experience. The guide at the site was a friendly, smiling woman who showed me and two other visitors their cellars and landscaped grounds as well as vineyards, and also sat down with me for a tasting of three of their wines. It was a memorable experience in a beautiful setting.

Our tour by Ampora Wine Tours started at Cassone. The winery tour was great and they seemed to use the interests of our group to focus on the aspects that were most interesting to us. After tasting four of their wines we were super impressed with their operation and passion for their work. A+!

This small winery with a stellar restaurant is my favorite in the area. You can book a tour of the operation and taste their fine wines. And do not miss having lunch while you are there. The food is exquisitely presented and so delicious. The best meal I had in Mendoza!

This little gem was a great experience even with my 2 kids. We arrived and had lunch with the most amazing food and wine at a very good price. The man servering us (Daniel) was able to explain in Spanish and English and gave great attention to our kids and took them to feed the fish in the pond they have. His service was outstanding. After a quick lay in the hammocks outside then off to a wonderful tour with Freddie who's English was very good and the tour was so informative. Nothing was too much and they even called taxis for us to get home. Super recommendable ..

We were lucky enough to be introduced to this gentleman and his wine in 2017. Tonight, we celebrated a milestone but sadly finished the last bottle we brought back from our trip. The whole experience of visiting Bodega Carmelo Patti proved to be one of the greatest highlights on the best vacation we've ever taken. Carmelo is authentic, earnest, and friendly. He crafts incredible wine that tastes all the better because you feel like he's an old friend and that you're part of his family within minutes of arriving. This is a spot worth seeking out if you're in or near Mendoza, and if you enjoy wine, look for a bottle wherever you can find it. You won't be disappointed.

What a beautiful winery. We visited Matervini through a tour arranged by Kahuak, and it was a phenomenal experience. The facility is gorgeous and we loved the wines so much that we joined the wine club. Imagine our surprise to arrive home to an issue of the Wine Spectator featuring the best Malbec wines and 2 of the wines we purchased from Matervini were in the top 10! Our host, Gustavo Biondo was kind, courteous, professional and knowledgeable. Our visit was early in the morning and I really didn’t plan on enjoying the wines, but boy did I ever!!! For us, this was one of the highlights of our vacation! Thank you, Gustavo and Bodega Matervini!!!

Visiting Benegas Winery ... it is right on the road, so to speak, compared to others where the winery is tucked away far off the main road, surrounded by vineyards. This winery is on the main road. First impressions just from the looks can be very deceiving. A relatively very small winery, producing 300K bottles. They make quality, premium wines the old-fashioned way. And boy, are they excellent!!! The guide was excellent, with a excellent command of English, the winery, and on the wine making process. Was blown away by the wines!!!

9. Vina Cobos
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 434 reviews
Viña Cobos is the inspired vision of a dreamer who one day undertook the challenge of producing great Argentine red wine that would be on par with the best-known wines of the world. From that moment, Paul Hobbs started to make noble wines of superior quality, placing Malbec and Argentina on stage with the world's greatest wine producers.

We visited 7 bodegas in total while in the Mendoza wine region; this place stood out as our top visit. Beautiful grounds, gorgeous tasting area, fun hand-crafted production area that allowed for tours, and a friendly english-speaking guide. But the wine! The wine was fantastic, top notch, and worth the high price (relative to other wineries in the area.) I can't say this enough - you get what you pay for, and then some. If you only visit one, make it Viña Cobos.
