Detailed Description
On this tour, participants will have the opportunity to visit 2 wineries to contrast production methods.
The visit begins with a walk through the vineyards and the winery, including the underground areas, it will be guided by a Oenologist, who will show us the vineyards, production area and cava.
In each winery, we will carry out an incredible tasting of between 3 and 5 high-quality wines, where we will have the pleasure of doing a harmonized tasting with varieties of cheeses and cold cuts from the region.
Lunch is accompanied by the great local wines. It is possible to taste them and feel the pairing with the dishes of national cuisine. It is a three-course lunch: starter, main course and dessert. Each step is accompanied by one or more wines that pair with the chosen menu.
The obligatory suggestion is beef, of excellent quality in Uruguay, usually grilled. It is a method that uses the embers produced by the wood fire, giving it an exquisite smoky flavor.
Tannat is the ideal companion for Uruguayan meats, its structure and concentration of tannins soften the meats as well as the meats enhance the wine flavor. The dessert can be accompanied by a late harvest, a dessert wine or a sparkling demi sec.
We will visit the following wineries: Spinoglio, Pizzorno. In one the tasting will take place and in the other the lunch.
