Experience the exquisite flavors of Uruguayan wine on this guided tour of Bodega Bouza. Unveil the intricate journey of this beloved beverage, from the vineyard all the way to the bottle, while sampling various types along the way.

Bodega Bouza Tour

Your adventure begins with a pickup from your accommodation in Montevideo, proceeding northwest toward the winery, approximately an hour's drive.

Upon arrival, a 45-minute guided exploration of the winery and its surroundings awaits. As we stroll through the picturesque vineyards, you'll delve into the heritage of the family that operates this establishment and progressively uncover the intricacies of wine production. The knowledgeable guide will share insights into essential processes such as pigeage, de-stemming, and malolactic fermentation, transforming you into a wine aficionado!

Further, we'll explore the underground cellars where the aging process unfolds, lasting between 6 and 18 months in this unique environment.

Your visit culminates with a delightful lunch featuring wine pairings or a tasting with appetizers, based on your selection.

At the conclusion of this enriching experience, we'll return you to your hotel in Montevideo.

During your reservation, you can opt for a package that includes a tasting of four wines (three whites and one red), accompanied by a selection of cheese, cold cuts, and empanadas, or choose the lunch experience.
