Colomé Bodega

TIME : 2016/2/19 14:17:05

Fine wines are produced at this ecological bodega, which is set (as they say hereabouts) ‘where the devil lost his poncho,’ 18km down a spectacular gravel road west from Molinos. The vineyards enjoy a stunning natural setting, surrounded by hills and mountains that seem to change color hourly. There's forward-thinking here on several fronts: the complex is electrically self-sufficient, has funded substantial infrastructural improvements in the local community and boasts a stunning museum .

Both bodega (three daily) and museum visits should be booked ahead by phone or email ([email protected]), though you can often just turn up. As well as tastings, the bodega serves delicious salads and sandwiches (AR$90 to AR$100) and a meat option.
