Depuis 9 ans, nous parcourons des domaines viticoles à travers l'Uruguay, ce qui nous a permis de tisser des liens très forts avec les propriétaires de caves uruguayennes. Cela nous donne la possibilité et le privilège de proposer des visites personnalisées où la qualité est primordiale. De plus, notre agence d'œnotourisme a été déclarée d'intérêt par l'INAVI (Institut national de la viticulture) grâce à notre travail et au service de qualité que nous garantissons à nos clients. Carmelo est considéré comme un petit joyau de l'œnotourisme en Uruguay, avec un ensemble de caves très différentes les unes des autres. Pour cet itinéraire particulier, nous avons choisi deux caves, privilégiant l'accueil familial, où les visiteurs seront servis par les propriétaires eux-mêmes, car nous pensons que cette expérience est totalement inédite dans d'autres régions du monde.
