Argentina Food & Wine Trips

Private, Tailored Culinary & Wine Journeys Across Argentina

“We believe a culture is never truly understood unless you taste it flavors. That belief shapes every Food & Wine journey we design across Argentina.”

 

Argentina is one of the world’s most exciting food and wine destinations — not only because of its wines, but because of how deeply gastronomy is tied to culture, landscape, and people.

At Tailored Argentina, we design fully customized Food & Wine trips for travelers who want to understand Argentina through its flavors. These are not standard wine tours or restaurant lists. They are immersive journeys built around regional cuisine, local producers, and meaningful access.

Read below to understand how we design Food & Wine trips in Argentina, where they take place, and who they are for.

Why Travel to Argentina for Food & Wine?

This is not a standard wine tour. It’s a carefully designed journey through regions, kitchens, vineyards, and people — built around access, not crowds.

Argentina combines conditions that few countries can match

Food and wine here are not add-ons to travel. They are the way Argentina is experienced.

World-class wines grown at extreme altitudes

Regional cuisines shaped by geography and history

Fire-based cooking traditions still practiced by locals

Boutique wineries with direct access to owners and winemakers

A culinary scene internationally recognized by the Michelin Guide

Argentina as a World-Class Wine Region

Malbec and Beyond

Malbec is Argentina’s flagship grape, known for its depth, structure, and elegance. Grown along the Andes at high altitudes, Argentine Malbec develops intense character while maintaining balance and freshness.

Beyond Malbec, Argentina excels in:

  • Cabernet Franc

  • Torrontés (Argentina’s signature white)

  • Bonarda

  • Pinot Noir

What sets Argentina apart is not only wine quality, but access: intimate wineries, personal tastings, and conversations with the people who make the wine.

Argentina is internationally recognized as one of the great wine-producing countries of the world.

Food & Wine Destinations We Design Around

Mendoza – Argentina’s Wine Capital

Private winery visits across Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, winemaker-hosted tastings, and multi-course lunches paired with the region’s best wines. Mendoza is where wine, gastronomy, and landscape come together at the highest level.

San Rafael – Boutique Winery Experiences

A quieter, more intimate wine region. Travelers stay inside working wineries, enjoy owner-led tastings, traditional Argentine asados, and vineyard views. Ideal for travelers seeking authenticity and connection.

Buenos Aires – Argentina’s Culinary Hub

Buenos Aires brings together Argentina’s culinary identity. Parrillas, contemporary tasting menus, wine bars, and Michelin-recognized restaurants reflect a food scene rooted in tradition and innovation

El Calafate – Patagonian Cuisine

Patagonian flavors shaped by landscape: lamb, trout, wild berries, and fire-based cooking. Food experiences here are grounded, elemental, and often enjoyed after days exploring glaciers and open steppe.

Jujuy – Ancestral Northern Cuisine

Northern Argentina’s most distinctive culinary identity. Native ingredients, high-altitude wines, and ancestral recipes reflect centuries of Andean tradition and cultural continuity.

Cafayate – High-Altitude Wines

One of Argentina’s most unique wine regions. Known for Torrontés and high-altitude Malbecs, Cafayate combines desert landscapes, boutique wineries, and wines with unmistakable character.

Signature Food & Wine Experiences We Include

Our Food & Wine trips may include:

Private winery visits and tastings

Winemaker- or owner-hosted experiences

Long, wine-paired lunches

Traditional asados prepared by Argentine locals

Lessons about meat cuts and fire cooking traditions

Cooking classes focused on regional recipes

Boutique hotels and vineyard stays

Seamless private logistics throughout

Every experience is selected based on quality, access, and relevance — never volume.

Michelin Recognition & Argentina’s Culinary Scene

Argentina’s food scene has gained international recognition through Michelin stars and Michelin Guide mentions, particularly in Buenos Aires and Mendoza.

This recognition reflects:

  • Technical excellence

  • Creative reinterpretation of local ingredients

  • Fire-driven cuisine

  • Strong connection to regional identity

For travelers, this means access to world-class dining experiences without losing authenticity.

Every itinerary is built around your taste, curiosity, and travel style.

What Makes Our Food & Wine Trips Different

This isn’t about ticking wineries and renowned restaurants off a checklist.

We focus on:

  • Private, behind-the-scenes winery visits
  • Tastings guided by winemakers and sommeliers
  • Gastronomic lunches designed to match each wine
  • Special dinners under the stars
  • Experiences tailored to your level of wine knowledge
  • Boutique hotels and vineyard stays we personally know
  • Traditional asados prepared by Argentine locals, where the fire is as important as the food
  • Lessons about meat cuts and the traditions behind them, passed down through generations
  • Hands-on cooking classes, so you can take Argentina’s flavors back home with you
  • No crowds, no rigid schedules, no mass tourism

 

A culinary culture where food is meant to be shared, not rushed — and where every meal tells a story.
