This is a small and historical museum in Mendoza…read more Built in the year 1939, this building is the mostparadigmatic example of whats called "boat architecture", it has a great visual dinamism following classical concepts from the Bauhaus School and some ideas from Le Corbusier. The museum is small but magical and well curated, besides you can get awesome views of General San Martin Park's lake.

I would say that this experience is one I will never forget. They are known for their Malbec which…read morewas great. If you go to Maipu, Argentina this is a must see. It was out of this world and the setup puts Napa tasting rooms and vineyards look so small. They even have an art museum at the vineyard. The service was great as we toured the vineyard and cellar. Not many have a gran piano in them.

This place exceeded my expectations. When you first arrive you see beautiful buildings in the…read moreshadow of the mountains. My husband and I explored the property for a bit and took some pictures before heading in for our tour. We went to the tour desk and checked in. They told us that we would go in the next room over to watch a movie. The film was really interesting, and definitely made me ready for the tour. We then followed our guide Martina to the other building where the magic happens. We saw the bottling, meeting rooms, old batches of wine. Each place we went and each thing we saw had a great story! We then when into a room with a ton of barrels and a piano in the center. That piano produced beautiful sound and the room had awesome acoustics. They said that in the summer they have concerts only for about 300 people. But lets be real, we were there for one thing... the wine. It definitely did not disappoint! We even bought 6 bottles to take home with us. Martina was awesome... we talked about things from wine to cultures to the TV show Friends! We told Martina that we were on our honeymoon and she surprised us with an extra taste of wine! We really enjoyed our tour and we even got to know our other tour mates. If and when we make it back to Mendoza, this will be a place we need to visit again!

We came to this museum and tasting room as a last minute change to our original itinerary since the…read moretasting reservation we had elsewhere fell through unexpectedly. This place was close to where we were and although it was Monday it was open for visits without the need for a reservation (a lot of wineries are closed to visitors on Mondays). The cost for the museum guided visit and a tasting of their two 'museum' wines as 390 Argentinian pesos per person (~7US$) and that amount could then be used as a credit at the tasting room/wine shop after the completion of the tour. The tour was actually nice and interesting, not too long since the museum itself is rather small, but we got to see several instruments and equipment used in the wine making process which dated back to the 1500s. The wines we tasted as part of the tour were awful but we then got to taste a few Ruttini wines which were actually decent, most notably their gewurztraminer. If you're already in this area then stopping by for a visit to this museum could be a nice addition to your itinerary, however I don't think it's worth going out your way to come here just for the tour.

I don't know why this place is $$$ it should be $ for the value. Tour was good and museum very…read moreinteresting. The wines we tasted however were not so great, you taste two and I don't think I'd bother drinking either of them again. Entrance is $150 pesos which seems expensive until they tell you that you can exchange the $150 for a bottle of wine or wine tasting. My partner and I combined both of ours and bought a pretty decent bottle of wine. I would recommend checking this place out
