Culinary/Food Wine Tasting

Overview

Get an introduction to the best of Argentina’s cuisine and culture. Meet and interact with other travelers as you sip on a welcome drink.

Start your culinary experience with appetizers and wine. Then, create your own empanada and choose the filling you prefer and see them use the “repulge” technique to make it. As you taste different flavors, get a short class and learn the most important Argentinean hand gestures.

Then, enjoy what many are claiming to be the best steak in Argentina, that goes through a unique 24-hour preparation method.

Try different Malbec wines from boutique wineries in Mendoza as well as other typical food like cuartirolo cheese with dulce de batata (made with sweet potato) and dulce de madera (Argentina is the only country in the world where a special kind of wood can be eaten).

For desert make your own alfajores, Argentina’s national sweet, that combines biscuits, dulce de leche, melted chocolate, and coconut shavings.

End your gastronomic experience with a lesson on the history and etiquette of “mate”, the country’s national tea. Learn how to prepare it from scratch and share it among yourselves.

Vegetarian, pescatarian, and celiac options are available upon request.

Transfers are private but experience is shared.
