"I’ve been living in Mendoza 5 month now, we’ve been to many nice dinners, but this stood against the rest. The experience, the food, the wine and the people - simply amazing. Would eat her everyday if I could"
Adam Howes
"We did wine tasting of: TERROIR SELECTION & LOS ESCASOS. 3 wines testing each of red wines, in total 6 testing. The amounts are generous. The view around the winery is beautiful and the wine is tasty"
Saar Rachamim
"We tasted several wines and really loved this winery. We did not do a tour. We simply bicycled up with no reservation, and asked to purchase "copitas de vino". We shared 5 glasses between 3 of us and got a very good sense of what Alta Vista has to offer. Catalina was our server and she expertly detailed each wine as we sat in the garden and enjoyed the view of the mountains. Wonderful time!"
