WINE HARVEST FESTIVAL
In January and February
every year each of the eighty communities that make up the Province of Mendoza and who all have vineyards, wineries, or both, elects their own
Harvest Queen. All of these goddesses of wine descend on the Provincial Capital (Mendoza city) in the first week of March and on the Saturday night South America´s most lavish and spectacular wine festival is celebrated in a natural Greek amphitheatre nestling amongst the low hills, inside the magnificent San Martín Park.
This tour is designed to blend together visits and tastings in fine wineries, superb accommodation, sumptuous lunches, culminating with a unique display of “ The essence of Argentinian life” entertainment
and the crowning of the “Queen of Queens”, who will represent
Mendoza
province (and
Argentina) in the following twelve months. It really is a very unique festival show.
