Mendoza: Argentina’s<br />
Enchanting Winelands<br />
From the mystique of its Malbec wines to the<br />
majesty of its high-desert expanses at the foot of the<br />
Andes Mountains, the Mendoza region is a dream<br />
destination. The city of Mendoza, with its wide,<br />
tree-lined boulevards, charming plazas and friendly,<br />
relaxed atmosphere, is backdropped by picturesque<br />
mountains, where stimulating outdoor adventures<br />
await, including biking, hiking and horseback riding.<br />
Mendoza is renowned as the largest wine-growing<br />
region in Latin America. Blessed with warm, sunny<br />
days — more than 300 of them a year on average —<br />
and cool, grape-nurturing nights, the terroir here is<br />
unique, yielding vintages that appeal to diverse and<br />
discerning palates.<br />
The region’s signature Malbec grape, which originated<br />
in the damp of France, thrives in Mendoza’s arid<br />
surroundings. Its bold taste and outstanding value<br />
have helped make it a worldwide favorite, along with<br />
other superb wines produced locally. Mendoza is also<br />
noted for its olives and the fine oil derived from them.<br />
Wings Over Chile, Argentina & Brazil includes an<br />
exceptional three-night sojourn in Mendoza that<br />
offers you the opportunity to experience the wines,<br />
culture and landscapes of this starkly beautiful land<br />
alongside the finest local experts.<br />
