Overview

The Wine Experience is the pioneer of Wine Tours in Uruguay and proud to be Number 1 on Trip Advisor for 12 years running. We designed this experience specifically for Food & Wine Lovers, who love to taste new and interesting wines. You will be received and guided by a winery expert. You will get to see the vineyard, winery and cellar followed by a Gourmet Lunch paired with wines. This is more of an educational experience for those new to wine or for avid wine enthusiasts. You will learn about Tannat, Uruguay's flagship grape now known as the healthiest red wine in the world.

We always keep in mind that you have travelled from afar to experience something special. Together with our small team, our goal is to make it as personable as possible (like hanging out with a new friend). We see ourselves as ambassadors of this beautiful country and see it as a privilege to show you the best of what's around. You came to the right place. Let's start your vacation with a bang!

Reviews

WOW what an amazing experience!

I'll keep this simple: 1. Do you enjoy great wine? 2. Do you enjoy excellent food? 3. Can you afford the cost of the tour? If yes to those three questions then you definitely want to take this tour! Communication from Ryan before, at tour time and post cruise was simply amazing. Our driver, Javier, was right on time, friendly and a very comfortable driver. Our Winery host, Giovanni, was gracious, knowledgeable and immediately caught onto the personality of our group and fit right in. The wines were excellent and the food was as good as you will find in any great restaurant! The ambiance of being served an incredible lunch in the beautiful surroundings of the vineyard was truly a very wonderful and memorable experience! JUST DO IT!
Fantastic Wine and Lunch

We travelled to Montivideo via a cruise. The guide met us right outside the port and we drove for a while to the beautiful Pizzorno winery. It was just the two of us so when arrived we joined an in progress tour of the winery. The best part was our guide made sure our complimentary glasses of sparkling wine were continuously filled. The winery staff gave a very detailed overview of the wine making process and we enjoyed lunch with a few of their wine selections. Well, they called it lunch but it was more like a three course dinner. We had the lamb and it was absolutely delicious; particularly with their Tannat. Our guide, Nicolas, was super friendly and was more that happy to answer our multitude of questions. He was just a great person to hang out with. It was a great day.
Great wine! Great day! Great Guide!

We had an excellent day visiting Pizzorno vineyard with our guide Federico! He began by telling us about the city as we started towards the vineyard. Federico was funny and very informative. When we arrived at the vineyard we enjoyed some sparkling wine before a very informative tour. After the tour was a delicious meal in the private dining room with so many wonderful wines to try. It was a great day, full of laughs and great wine!
Great wine, amazing food, and friendly hosts

My friends and I had a great time with The Wine Experience. Ryan was incredibly communicative before, during, and after our trip. In addition to communicating with us about all the necessary information re: pick-up (we stayed in an Airbnb and they picked us up right in front of where we were staying), he gave us tips and advice for things to do during the rest of our stay. We must have gotten at least 15 recommendations of food and things to do, and all the ones we tried were fantastic.

Our driver, Matias, was friendly and punctual, and we got to sit with him during our tasting and lunch. The wine tour itself was very educational, and everyone spoke amazing English. There was no shortage of wine - there was a glass of sparkling wine waiting for us when we got there, and they were generous about extra pours during the tasting. The food was phenomenal, and each course came with it's own wine pairing. The vineyard also had a list of where their wines were sold in the US, so you didn't feel obligated to buy a bottle and travel with it. Overall, a beautiful winery and lovely day!
Tour was Spanish Only

Great food and wine but the entire tour at the winery was in Spanish only with no real translation.

The lunch was very good and the wine was very nice.
