First, we went to a small, family-owned Bodega...
Grapes, grapes, and more grapes!
The cellar
The wine from this particular bodega sells for $6 in Mendoza and $60 in the US. Sigh. If only I had room in the mochila (back pack). Hello! Christmas Presents!
Then we visited a MUCH larger winery...
Huge oak barrels!
And more tasting...the best part!
We also visited a place that makes Olive Oil. Oh yes, and there were samples. I´m talking bread drizzled with Olive Oil and sundried tomatoes. Sarah was definately in her happy place that day.
Olive Trees.
