Our curation

We don't visit every
winery.
Only the best.

01

Guaranteed private access

Every winery on our list has us scheduled in advance. You don't arrive as a tourist: you arrive as a guest. Winemakers, owners and export directors receive you personally.

02

Areas not shown on group tours

Private cave, historic barrel room, tasting of cellar wines not for sale. 15 years of relationships open doors that others cannot open.

03

Selection with editorial criteria

We don't work with every winery — we work with those we consider genuinely exceptional. Each one was visited, evaluated and chosen for its history, its wine and its experience.

04

No intermediaries or commissions

No winery pays us to be on our list. The selection is 100% independent, based on quality and experience. Your tour is not advertising — it is honest curation.

"We have spent 15 years choosing wineries. We don't look for the most famous — we look for those that will change the way you understand wine."

— Discovery Wine Mendoza Team
What our travelers say

Experiences
you won't forget.

★★★★★

"We visited Catena Zapata and Zuccardi on the same day. The access we had was incredible — they took us to areas not normally shown. The guide knew every detail of every wine. An experience we could never have had alone."

James & Catherine W.
London, United Kingdom
★★★★★

"We went to Viña Cobos and Achaval Ferrer. The wines we tasted were not available in any store. They explained everything with a passion and knowledge that transformed each glass into a masterclass on Malbec."

Marco A.
São Paulo, Brazil
★★★★★

"The tour to Uco Valley was the most memorable of our trip to Argentina. Zuccardi Valle de Uco is simply stunning — the architecture, the landscape, the wines. And the private treatment is a huge difference compared to any group tour."
