Recreate your eyes with beautiful views of our countryside, appreciate the green growing vineyards, taste the excellence of our great wines and best beef in the world!

To close the day, a magnificent lunch at the Mercado del Puerto (Port market) enjoying the tenderness and flavours of our beef, form cattle raised naturally in the prairie in a marriage with our best Tannat wines.
