Mendoza πŸ’•

Byatangajwe: 12.01.2018

We're going to Mendoza for my birthday, to a charming Finca in the vineyards. πŸ‘πŸ‡ It's a beautiful birthday gift that I received from my sweetheart 😍

Here in Mendoza, it's very hot and dry, so we've decided to follow the motto: "save the wa(l)ter, drink more wine" 😜🍷

On the first evening, the owner of the Finca, Salvador, prepared an "Asado" (Argentinian grill fest) πŸ—πŸ₯© We had a fun evening with 6 other guests, enjoying some of the best steaks we've ever had, accompanied by one, two, three glasses of fine Malbec wine from Huswy 🍷😍 La pura vida 😘

On the second day, we had a delicious breakfast in the beautiful garden 😍 Then we went on a tour of the "Septima" winery, followed by a gourmet lunch πŸ‡πŸ΄πŸ·πŸ˜Ž The food was a perfect match for their wines and beautifully presented. πŸ΄πŸ·πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ˜ƒ

On the next day, we visited two smaller wineries by bike. πŸš΄β€β™€οΈπŸš΄πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ™ˆπŸ˜…

One of them (Budeguer) was a boutique winery with its own lake. There, the white wine was even our favorite πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ€—

The other one (Dolium) was smaller, and the owner explained more to us about his winemaking process and his efforts to be as eco-friendly as possible. πŸ‡ It was very interesting, and then we rode back on our rented bicycles πŸš΄β€β™€οΈπŸš΄πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ’¨πŸ™ˆπŸ˜…

So the Malbec in Mendoza was a great experience for us 🍷😁

On our last morning, we enjoyed the beautiful view in the garden, sipped some wine, and relaxed... πŸ‡πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜

After three wonderful days, we sadly had to say goodbye to the Finca and head to the city to catch an overnight bus to Santiago πŸšŒπŸ™ˆπŸ˜”
