Discover the region

Wine, nature and hospitality in the south of Mendoza, between farms, rivers and vast landscapes.

Southern Mendoza offers a different pace for experiencing wine, where vineyards and wineries coexist with vast natural landscapes, rural roads, and a strong local identity. San Rafael is at the heart of the region’s winemaking tradition, with historic wineries and newer projects offering opportunities to explore vineyards, enjoy wine tastings, and discover a gastronomy closely connected to local ingredients and products.

Further south, toward General Alvear, the landscape becomes even more peaceful and rural, extending the journey through southern Mendoza’s productive oasis. The region invites visitors to combine wine and relaxation with outdoor activities, from exploring the Atuel Canyon and its reservoirs to adventure experiences and opportunities to connect with nature. Wineries, accommodations, and local experiences make this an ideal destination for travelers looking to discover a different side of Mendoza—slower-paced and away from the traditional wine tourism routes.
