    About this tour

    Located in the heart of Perdriel, Luján de Cuyo , Bodega Casarena is a must-visit for those seeking to combine the authenticity of the Mendoza terroir with a top-tier culinary experience. Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, this lunch is designed as an immersive experience where the landscape, signature cuisine, and prestigious estate wines blend in perfect harmony.

    Below, we present the two exclusive options you can book to experience an unforgettable midday:

    🍇 Option 1: "Picada Cuyana" Experience

    A relaxed proposal to share the best of Mendoza

    If your ideal plan includes a leisurely chat, a glass of wine, and an open view of the Andes Mountains, this option is tailor-made for you.

    Casarena's Picada Cuyana goes beyond a traditional charcuterie board; it's a gourmet reinterpretation of our region's identity. Designed especially for sharing, it offers a journey through artisanal cured meats from the region, local goat cheeses with a unique texture, and a carefully curated selection of pickles and homemade spreads that will delight your palate.

    • Experience profile: Ideal for couples, families or groups of friends looking for a relaxed lunch, either in their outdoor spaces or in their contemporary design lounge.

    • The Pairing: The proposal is accompanied by a glass of house wine, carefully chosen to balance the freshness and intensity of the local flavors.

    • Recommendation: This option is perfect if you are doing a full-day winery tour and prefer a light but sophisticated lunch, ideal for continuing your wine route tour in complete comfort.

    🍷 Option 2: 3-Course Tapas with Premium Wine Pairing

    A tour of the terroirs and vineyards of Casarena

    For wine and fine dining enthusiasts, the winery offers a three-course gastronomic experience . Here, the spotlight is shared equally between reimagined Creole cuisine and the unique characteristics of the soil from its vineyards.

    Each course on this menu has been crafted to highlight the notes of their most award-winning wines. From the warmth of perfectly cooked traditional empanadas, through creamy, locally sourced textures, to incredibly tender, slow-cooked meats. The difference is truly experienced in the glass: an opportunity to discover how the soil ( terroir ) influences iconic grape varieties like Cabernet Franc and Malbec from select plots.

    • Experience profile: Ideal for those seeking a more formal lunch, focused on the technical appreciation of wine pairing and culinary enjoyment in an exclusive setting.

    • The Pairing: Includes a guided tasting of three premium glasses from the winery, highlighting its acclaimed Single Vineyard line wines (from specific estates such as Lauren and Jamilla) and its outstanding signature blends .

    • Atmosphere: Elegant, educational and with a deep regional imprint.

The usual meeting point is the reception area of Bodega Casarena in Luján de Cuyo; if you book the option with transportation, pick-up is from hotels in downtown Mendoza City within a specific time window. We recommend arriving 15–20 minutes early and confirming language availability (Spanish/English) when booking. The itinerary may be adjusted due to internal operations or daytime conditions.

    Casarena Winery is located in Luján de Cuyo, about 20–30 km from Mendoza City (30–45 minutes, depending on traffic).

    The gourmet experience typically offers special menus for vegetarians, vegans, and those with gluten intolerance (GLA) with prior notice (ideally 48 hours), and guests should inform their guests of any allergies to adjust the wine pairings. The winery and restaurant areas are generally accessible; however, vineyard paths can have uneven terrain, so assistance is recommended if a wheelchair or stroller is needed. The minimum age for wine tasting is 18, although families are welcome for lunch.

    Almuerzo soñado en Bodega Casarena con Tangol

    Fui con Tangol al almuerzo en Bodega Casarena y fue una delicia de principio a fin. Traslado puntual, mesa con vista a los viñedos y un menú de pasos impecable: empanadas, ojo de bife perfecto y un postre increíble. El maridaje con Malbec y Chardonnay, de 10, explicado por un sommelier muy capo. Ambiente relajado, servicio cálido y precio justo. Ideal para parejas o amigos. ¡Repetiría sin dudar! Mendoza de lujo.

    Perfect Winery Lunch: Casarena’s Views, Malbec Pairings, And Effortless Tangol Service In Mendoza Argentina

    Absolutely loved this Casarena lunch with Tangol. Chill vibes, stunning vineyard views, and a spot-on tour of the cellar before sitting down. Each course came perfectly paired—hello, silky Malbec and insane empanadas. Service was warm, never rushed, and the timing felt effortless. Super easy booking, on-time pickup, and zero hassle. Would 100% do it again. Seriously memorable afternoon in Mendoza.

    Perfektes Casarena-Weingut-Lunch: Wein, Andenblick und entspannte Vibes mit Tangol Tours

    Wenn du in Mendoza bist, gönn dir das Mittagessen im Weingut Casarena! Tangol Tours hat alles top organisiert – Abholung pünktlich, super netter Guide. Im Garten mit Blick auf die Anden probierten wir mehrere Weine (der Malbec war ein Traum) passend zu jedem Gang. Die Küche ist kreativ, regional und echt lecker. Atmosphäre entspannt, Service herzlich, null Hektik. Preis-Leistung passt, und du gehst satt, glücklich und ein bisschen verliebt in Mendoza nach Hause. Würde ich sofort wieder buchen. Definitiv.
