The Agency is registered with Argentina´s Ministry of Tourism (Leg. 13577) meeting all National and Provincial regulations, simply input "Grapevine" to verify.
The company`s head office is in Manchester (UK) and is a Limited Company (registered in September 2004 by
Kelly Thornhill). Since then Kelly has worked consistently at building up what is today a solid reputation as the expert in highly personalised Luxury Travel & Wine Tourism in Argentina & Chile. Kelly has gathered around her a small team of professional (English speaking) wine hosts, sommeliers and support staff whose priority is to ensure their clients get the very best tour possible.
Itineraries are designed for a wide range of clients, from wine enthusiasts to those clients who simply enjoy a glass of wine and would like to learn more about it. We also host gourmet clubs, leading international journalists, wine clubs and professional organizations from all parts of the globe.
Each tour is tailor-made in accordance with client preferences. Tours include exclusive tastings of premium wines, barrel tastings, vineyard walks even tasting by horseback. Gourmet lunches, with lots of wine are always included, set against a back-drop of the majestic, snow capped Andes mountains.
