Cecilia's service was excellent, she is a pro, I loved how she explained everything, a sweetheart 🥰🥰🥰
The wine experience was excellent, the guide explained everything to us, we took home a blend made by us, and we stayed for lunch, we were served by Jose and Gonza, the service, the kindness, and the exquisite cuisine were excellent!!! Totally recommended
Beautiful experience, we did an activity for children in which the guide was excellent at all times, very attentive and then we had lunch, the staff were very attentive and the service was high quality.
I was the only person for the English tour so I had a private one. Tried many different wines on different stages of production and different types. Highly recommended
It is a well-established and organized family winery. The guide Antonella stood out for being very educational, detailed in her explanations, and extremely professional. The wines, especially those at the end, are very, very good. Highly recommended visit.
We liked the experience because the explanation was very detailed and interesting. Cecilia was the winemaker in charge and was very friendly to everyone and throughout the visit there was no shortage of good humor.
This wine tour was a little disappointing compared to others we did in the area. While we did get some insight into the winemaking process, it didn’t feel as in-depth or engaging — especially as we had just come from a tour led by a winemaker, which really set a high standard. The guide was involved in the process, but the level of detail and overall delivery didn’t quite match what we were hoping for. As it’s a smaller winery, the experience felt a bit more limited, and unfortunately we didn’t particularly enjoy the wines either. Overall, it wasn’t a terrible experience, but it didn’t stand out and didn’t feel especially well suited for those looking for a more informative or polished wine tour.
We were attended by Cecilia who made us immersed in the fascinating world of wine and the history of this pinera family in the hands of Juanita, we sat at her table and everything was very magical. Thank you very much, we took ub piece of Mendoza in our trcuerdos.
Very nice place and attention of all staff. We arrived a few minutes early and were treated to a welcome drink. While we waited for the guided tour we were offered to pass the garden, a warm place with games and entertainment.
Excellent experience, the guide Cecilia very friendly, we leave very happy!
