Uruguay - Must visit Vinicola Castillo Viejo - Excellent presentation of the winery provided by sommelier Alejandra, who showed us the wine manufacturing process, from planting to bottling. The tasting was very good, with excellent quality wines. One of the best wines we had in Uruguay! Worth the visit!!

Nice Family-Run Winery - Very personable experience. Only 4 of us in the group. They provided a translator to eliminate any language barriers. Most of all, we loved the wine + family run business!

Castillo Viejo Wine Experience - Alejandra and Miguel were exceptional hosts. To be on a tour with the premier winemaker of Uruguay was such a unforgettable experience. Details of vineyard secrets were finally shared with the public and the history of Castillo Viejo now grows wild. It was a once in a lifetime honor to attend this tour. Thank you Alejandra for being a gracious host.

Super recommended - At the entrance, we were welcomed in the winery's garden, which is in front of the experimental vineyard, where we were introduced to several different types of grapes. Alejandra, who welcomed us, explained the grape and wine varieties, showed us how the wines are bottled and where they are aged in the oaks. He also took us to a table where we could feel the different notes that are possible to find in the wine. Finally, we did the tasting in a beautiful room. This is the second winery we visited, but the experience here was much richer than the previous one - I highly recommend it! The driver was recommended by the winery and was also super attentive and waited for the experience to end before taking us back to the hotel.

Excellent wine tasting in a beautiful setting - Had a great experience. 4th generation family owned winery serving some excellent wine. The underground tasting room has a great ambiance. The music, and food enhanced the wine tasting. Friendly people. The young girl, who is from the 4th generation was the only one who spoke English and took us on the tour. She was sweet and friendly. We really enjoyed this place and can’t recommend it enough.

Excellent and unmissable - The visit to this winery was a pleasant experience. We were welcomed by the owners of the winery who told us the story since the arrival of their ancestors in the region. The visit to the winery was guided by winemaker Alejandra who did a great job of presenting the internal areas and production. Finally, we had a wonderful lunch washed down with the winery's great wines. Unmissable!!
