- 669drewr0 contributionsExceptional TripWe had an amazing time! Marcelo was extremely nice, welcoming, and informative. The vineyards and lunch were exceptional. We highly recommend it!Written 18 January 2024
- rosscM4369XJ0 contributionsSuperb day in Uco ValleyExtraordinary trip. Superb day out thanks to Marcelo. His relaxed, ‘can do’ approach meant I was able to choose a place I wanted to go and leave the rest in his capable hands. His years of knowledge and experience meant we were able to go to any winery. Lunch at Domaine Bousquet was excellent & their organic wines were luscious. Salentein was also impressive. I highly recommend Marcelo’s tours, best value in Argentina.Written 7 September 2023
- Paolaperozo0 contributionsExcellent!Denise and Marcelo are exceptional. Their service is just excellent. Highly recomended! Our experience was just amaizingWritten 16 May 2023
- OperaChica8300 contributionsAbsolutely AMAZING wine tasting experience at the foothills of the Andes!Marcelo and Denise at Mendoza Wine Transfer are absolutely AMAZING! They are the kindest people, took care of every detail and were so wonderful to work with. We booked the tour last minute and they were able to arrange 3 incredible tastings, including a fantastic lunch at the gorgeous Gimenez-Riili Vineyard. They are very knowledgable about the region, the wines, the culture, and you can feel how much they love their home. It was such a pleasure to work with them. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend working with them. This was our favorite part of our trip to Argentina!Written 18 January 2023
- georgiarothe0 contributionsbest investment we madeIf you go to Mendoza with a group of friends, do not hesitate to hire this service! It was the best investment we made. I traveled with 13 friends, so the organization of the trip was challenging but they helped us to make our experience wonderful. They gave us advice on which bodegas, restaurants and places we should visit and also helped us with some reservations. Marcelo and Denise are extraordinary people, responsible, friendly and kind ☺️ 10/10 🍷🍷🍷Written 12 October 2022
- nachopakla0 contributions10/10 recommendedMarcelo was the best. We were a were large group and went out of his way to make our travel time memorable with facts and details about the region. Not only did he help us selecting which wineries to visit but he also took care of making any last minute reservations needed. We’ll definitely contact him when we come back.Written 12 October 2022
- jandkNgatea0 contributionsGreat ValueA last minute decision to do the wine trail the day before we wanted to go made it difficult finding options that were not already fully booked so the wine transfer bus worked a treat,We were given a list of the wineries we were going to and made our choices based on notes on the list and recommendations of fellow travelers who were doing it for the second time.Written 7 May 2019
- 254amelieb0 contributionsA great tour guide to wineriesCouple from Canada, winemakers, visiting the wine region of Mendoza. Marcelo drove us around wineries and was a great host. Very knowledgeable of the region, explained to us a lot of details along the way. He shared his passion for wine and his region with us. Fantastic day in his company.Written 16 February 2019
- martinmdza0 contributionsAmazing best wine excursion experience everWe had planned our wine excursion visiting 3 wineries in Uco Valley, Mendoza, far in advance and were looking forward to our high point of this trip to Mendoza where we’ve been several times before already. Early in the morning we were picked up by Marcelo in his almost new and absolutely clean and well sized car. From the moment of greeting us we found he’s an extremely nice and talkative person and during the ride to Uco Valley (about 80-100 km) we didn’t stop talking. He really knows a lot about wines and wineries in general and besides that we enjoyed his sense of humor and spontaneous manners First we visited Domaine Bousquet winery with a beautiful lake with small fish and an amazing view over the Cordon del Plata Andes mountain chain. I won’t describe the “normal” part of the wineries visits here as this would probably become a 5 pages review. Wine tasting, of course, all organized by Marcelo with Premium Wines,was the top experience during all wineries visits. Second winery visited was Andeluna where Marcelo introduced us to the general manager of the winery which leaded us as a kind of a private tour through this amazing winery with a fantastic tasting room and (again) only premium wines to taste. During our rides to and between the wineries, mineral water and cookies were offered and available in Marcelo’s car. Last and best was O Fournier winery After the wine tour and tasting in this amazing architectural project, where even Art works of one of Argentina’s most famous artists (Cristina Santander) are exhibited and are hanging inbetween the wine barrels in the cellar, we were leaded to a 6 courses gourmet luncheon, where 6 different wines were served pairing with each course. This wine experience should be a Must for everyone visiting mendoza. It was really worth paying the small difference compared to a regular wine tour. Marcelo’s company, personally and talking, made all the difference to a regular commercial wine tour. On the way back to our hotel in mendoza downtown we both fell asleep. (No wonder !)Written 16 February 2019
- Jaisha110 contributionsWonderful day of wine tasting!Yesterday, my boyfriend and I toured wine country with Marcelo and had a wonderful experience. We loved the vineyards we visited and the day was surprisingly affordable. Marcelo was a great and personable guide and his English is perfect. I will recommend him to all of my friends and hope to explore this region with Mendoza Wine Transfers again soon.Written 3 January 2019
- Jaime_Miranda0 contributionsThank you MarceloMarcelo is kind, friendly, respectful, genuine and fun, with adults and children. He knows the area and has multiple contacts in several wineries. On a short notice, he was able to accommodate a good visit for us. This is the second time we visit Mendoza and the second time that I have seen him. No complaints whatsoever. Everything is on the plus side, punctuality, organization, readiness, good communication, proactive and readily, and willingness to help and passing the right information. He won't try to push you a set list of places to go but accommodate to your interests, time and budget. We had a day visit with children, 3 kids, and he was sensible to their needs too. I recommend his service. If you have doubts, ask him, and then decide.Written 16 July 2018
- j007onson0 contributionsGood timesMarcelo is the best guide in Argentina. There is such diversity and much to see. It’s some of the best wines in the worldWritten 17 June 2018
- cwatson9060 contributionsCustom wine tour - Uco Valley / MendozaAbsolutely perfect!!! Marcelo was early for our start which is always appreciated when you’ve got a full day planned. Right from our first email to after the tour the service was impeccable. Would highly recommend reaching out to this company. Check them out on Instagram too!Written 21 March 2018

10 out of 10!
We had a wonderful time with Marcelo on our wine tasting day and I would highly recommend him for a wine tasting experience in Mendoza. He is hugely knowledgable and very friendly.
I communicated with him via email first and he sent over many options including lots of bodegas. We narrowed it down to three and confirmed a date.
He was readily available to communicate before we met him via WhatsApp which was great in terms of confirming timings for the day.
He was prompt to collect us for 8.30. He helped us with our stuff and had a car seat ready for us as we were taking our baby along. He was very chatty and giving us all sorts of information during the drive to the uco valley.
We were a bit late leaving due to us and Marcelo was even able to make the time up and get us to arrive bang on time.
We didnt feel at all rushed . He had planned the whole day wonderfully.
The first bodega was in a beautiful setting, gorgeous mountains, luscious green all around, set in the desert. Incredible!
We visited two more bodegas and had lunch at the last one. This one also included a bonus art gallery.
He speaks very good English and is a fab guide!
If you’re in Mendoza and looking for a great, friendly, knowledgable driver then look no further. Marcelo is your man!

I absolutely loved my tour with Marcelo. He was very knowledgeable, he grew up in this region and had tons of things to share. We thoroughly enjoyed his company.
As for the three wineries we visited, I fell in love with all of them. Everything went way beyond my expectations. I highly recommend you book them and try it out for yourself.
