when you think of Argentina
you think of the tango, asado,
and the Gauchos
and of course wine
a lot of good quality wines
we have left the pampas
and flown to Mendoza in the northwest
the wine cellar of argentina
mendoza is famous for the
many wineries,
bodegas in spanish
we will taste wines
and share our personal
favorites with you
so grab yourself a bottle of wine
and enjoy this video
but before we start with wine tasting
first we go for a hike
right over there
it's a great trip
through the mountains of the Andes
and we started here in the vine yards
its argentina of course
and you see we are very close
to Chile
here's the border between Argentina and Chile
so we started in the wine yards
and we went to the mountains of the Andes
and we stopped here
at 'Oro de la Vieja'
and here we
are going to make a nice hike
the main regions of mendoza
where you find to vine yards and wineries
are Luyan de Cuyo,
to Maipu area
and Valle de Uco
people say Valle de Uco is incredible
and it's proven the moment we
drove into this valley
although the main touristic attraction
here is wine tasting
you must go to this valley
because of the beautiful sunrises
the Andes speaks up to 7,000 meters
turns red in the early morning
I bet you like this view
well like this
video too
and share these incredible views
with your friends

the natural desert climate is benefit
no one can copy from the bodegas
here in this valley
the warm dry days
encourage
the sugar production of the grabe
and the cold nights
with low humidity
means bugs and fungus aren't a problem
but enough talking
time for some wine tasting
antoher great bodega for lunch
and some wine tasting of course
this is bodega Salentein
it's from a Dutch owner
we feel at home in Argentina
and they have a nice art gallery
but we'll see we're going for lunch
you will find different bodegas
and nice lodges in and around Valle de Uco
we stayed at this place Alpasion
it's a lodge started by a group of friends
which are true wine lovers
and we have a premiere
because today we
can taste the first wine
which is produced with the grapes
that are harvest from this wine yard
the first grapes that are harvest from this vine yard
Salute!

daily photos and stories on our Instagram page
go to @DutchNomadCouple
we could only end this video
with a good glass of wine
in this case a Grand Malbec
from the Alpasion vine yard and next week
we are in another valley
it's  Luyan de Cuyo
so enjoy your day
follow your dreams
and to see you next week
Adios!
