Description
Discover the main wine regions in Uruguay through a tasting of 5 iconic wines, guided by a sommelier in a private tasting format.
The 5 Regions Tasting is a unique sensory experience that celebrates Uruguay's wine diversity. Each glass represents a different region of the country and expresses the character of its terroir. From the Atlantic Ocean to the deep north, this experience lets you explore Uruguay's geography without leaving our urban wine cellar.
The experience includes five wines selected from different producing areas, each accompanied by a bite designed to enhance their attributes. We kick off in Maldonado with a fresh and vibrant Albariño from Cerro del Toro, then head north with an elegant Nebbiolo from Cerro Chapeu in Rivera, and continue in Colonia with an expressive Syrah from El Legado. Then, we'll discover a powerful Tannat from Salto, and finish with a complex and balanced blend from Pizzorno, a reflection of the Canelones terroir and family oenological art.
Each step of this experience is guided by a specialized host, who shares information about the regions, producers, and sensory aspects of each wine. It's a unique way to get to know Uruguay through its wine culture, pairing tradition, innovation, and flavors.
Perfect for those who want to discover Uruguay's wine wealth in a single experience. Whether you're a wine lover or just curious to discover it, this proposal is an invitation to travel with your senses, glass by glass.
