Nearly 60 miles south of Mendoza City in the foothills of the Andes, Valle de Uco has gained widespread acclaim for the exceptional Malbecs originating from the region's high-altitude vineyards. Without question it is the rising star in the region and has attracted top names in the wine world including Michel Rolland, Paul Hobbs and the Lurton brothers. Wineries tend to be a bit more spread out than in Lujan de Cuyo, but that will change as investment continues to pour into this most high potential region.

Wineries you may wish to include in a Mendoza wine tour to Valle de Uco include:

  • Bodegas Salentein: This ultra-modern winery exemplifies the state-of-the-art facilities that are populating this outstanding region. Salentein features a temple-like barrel room and a modern art gallery.
  • Bodega O. Fournier: This Spanish-owned bodega features stunning architecture, outstanding wines (including Malbec blended with Tempranillo) and Urban, a top restaurant.
  • Andeluna Cellars: No expense has been spared at this immaculate, state-of-the-art winery owned by American businessman H. Ward Lay of the Frito-Lay empire.
