First stop: Pueblo Tannat

We begin our trip at the Bodega Pueblo Tannat, a small family-run winery in Colonia Estrella, created from a genuine passion for wine, the land, and the character of Carmelo.

Their wines are made to express the personality of the region, with varieties including Albariño, Tannat, Marselan,
and Cabernet Franc.

This is where we’ll officially start the weekend with a special four-course dinner, each course paired with a selection of their wines.The perfect start to our Carmelo getaway.

​

Saturday: history, family tradition, a long lunch and a sunset cruise

On Saturday, after a full breakfast at the hotel, we’ll begin with a short visit to Calera de las Huérfanas, one of the most fascinating historic sites in the area and a beautiful introduction to Carmelo’s heritage.

​

From there, we’ll continue to Bodega Zubizarreta, where the Zubizarreta family has been producing wine for three generations.

​

An intimate tasting at El Legado

Later in the day, we’ll visit Bodega El Legado, one of Carmelo’s most charming boutique wineries.

Run by its owners, El Legado is the kind of place that immediately makes you feel at home. We’ll hear the story behind the winery and enjoy a relaxed tasting of their wines accompanied by local delicacies.

​

And to finish: Sunset on the river

No Wine Explorers weekend in Carmelo would be complete without this experience.

We’ll board a private boat for a one-hour cruise along the northern Río de la Plata, navigating between the islands
as the sun begins to set.

On board, we’ll enjoy a selection of local cheeses and charcuterie, accompanied by wines from Bodega Narbona, soft drinks, and craft beers.

​

Weather permitting, it is one of the most beautiful moments of the entire weekend and the perfect way to end ourjourney.
