It’s a diverse South American country and has so much to offer within its many terrains.

Wander through the pine forest up to peaks with jaw-dropping views of rolling green hills and sapphire lakes. Some of the best hikes in the area are Cerro Llao Llao and Sendero Bahia Lopez, both short and easy hikes with stunning views.u know that the falls straddle the border between Argentina and Brazil?

Mendoza is the home to Argentina’s most famous wine, the mouthwatering Malbec. The reliably clear blue skies of Mendoza, with the Andes lined up in the distance and vines everywhere you look, make this city a rare gem. Mendoza also draws its share of adventure travelers, lured by the climbing, skiing, hiking and rafting opportunities.
HERE’S THE PLAN:
We have scheduled 3 different Virtual Travel Tours and Wine Tasting from different regions of the world. Each night, we’ll use Zoom Video Conferencing to present the destinations along with 1 white and 1 red from each region. Not a wine drinker, no worries. Join us to be inspired by these amazing destinations, with fun and laughter along the way.
The first virtual tour will be to Argentina on Thursday, September 3rd at 8 PM EDT, 5 PM PDT with Loli Marino, Founder of Oriunda, live from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The second virtual tour will take us around Portugal on Thursday, September 10th at 8 PM EDT, 5 PM PDT with Jordi Vilaseca, Director of Destination Spain and Portugal, live from Lisbon, Portugal.
And for the third virtual tour we are going to experience Croatia on Tuesday, September 15th at 8 PM EDT, 5 PM PDT with Zvonimir Androic, Founder of Via Tours Croatia, live from Zagreb, Croatia.
You’ll see gorgeous photos and videos of the region and what you will experience when you travel to these destinations. After each presentation you will be introduced to the wines you were shipped, and we’ll taste, ask questions and have a great time.
I, along with our special guest speakers look forward to sharing insights and tastes from these wonderful destinations. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me about the details and of course travel and to Warren for any questions about the wine.
