Happy New Year. I know I am late on the delivery for New Years wishes, but better late than never? My 2015 has really rocked thus far. After being away for a month long, belated honeymoon to Argentina, my energy stores are full, creative juices are flowing and am riding high on Vitamin D from the sun and fun. It really was a trip of a life time. If you have the chance to head down to Argentina, I strongly suggest it. There is beautiful architecture nestled in busy city streets, lots of wonderful restaurants and sights to see, nature to be explored and the food and wine…don’t get me started! Everyone warned us that their beef and wine is out of this world, and I would have to say, I agree.
Wine tasting at The Vines of Mendoza |
So let’s talk wine for a second. Well, perhaps more specifically, a winery. Nick and I traveled to Mendoza and decided to visit some wineries while we were there. I mean, it would be silly not it. It’s like being in Napa Valley and missing out on wine tastings. You just don’t do that. We chose Andeluna Cellars based on a review I read from this blog post (Thank you Rebecca!). We decided we wanted the best atmosphere because we are into interiors and stuff (duh). We booked a tour (in English, of course) and a 3 course tasting menu which did not disappoint. Also, Rebecca was right; the atmosphere at this winery was wonderful. It was as though I was visiting someone’s home, who invited us for a fancy lunch and wine. We were able to relax all day long, and if you were like me, had a brief snooze on the sofas. It was wonderful and the interiors were beautiful. A must go if you are tour the Uco Valley and wine touring.
