About This Tour

A private wine tour to Catena Zapata, whose pyramid-shaped winery is one of Mendoza's most photographed landmarks, followed by a three-course lunch with wine pairings at Casa Vigil, owned by renowned winemaker Alejandro Vigil. Your private driver takes you first to Catena Zapata for a guided tour and tasting inside its striking pyramid-shaped winery, then on to Casa Vigil for a three-course lunch paired with wine.

Catena Zapata's winery in Agrelo, part of Luján de Cuyo, is built in the shape of a stepped pyramid — a design architect Pablo Sánchez Elía completed in the late 1990s after Nicolás Catena Zapata, inspired by a trip to see Mayan pyramids in Central America, asked for the building to echo that same Mesoamerican architectural style. It's since become one of the most photographed winery buildings in Argentina, and the striking exterior is matched by what the family is actually known for inside: Nicolás Catena Zapata is widely credited as the person who revolutionized Argentine wine in the 1980s, introducing European winemaking techniques and pushing plantings up into Mendoza's extreme high-altitude sites in a deliberate push for quality — the same push that helped resurrect Malbec as Argentina's signature grape on the world stage. The winery itself traces back further still, to its 1902 founding by Italian immigrant Nicola Catena.

Casa Vigil, where lunch is served on this tour, is run by Alejandro Vigil — Catena Zapata's own head winemaker since 2002 — through his separate project, Bodega Aleanna (maker of El Enemigo). The restaurant has earned Michelin Guide recognition with both a star for its cooking and a separate green star for sustainable practice, a double distinction that's still relatively rare in Mendoza's dining scene. The connection isn't incidental: spending the morning at the winery where Vigil has spent his career, then finishing with a meal from his own kitchen, gives a more complete picture of the same winemaker's work than either stop would on its own.

A private vehicle handles every leg of the day, so there's no need to coordinate transport between the pyramid-shaped winery and the restaurant separately — useful given that Casa Vigil's three-course, wine-paired lunch is meant to be lingered over rather than rushed between group transfers.
