Carmelo is considered a small wine tourism gem of our country, with a set of wineries that are very different from each other. For this particular itinerary we have chosen two wineries, prioritizing the family style, where visitors will be served by the owners of the establishments themselves, since we believe that this experience is something completely unusual in other parts of the world.
