A spectacular five-course meal of unique, well-prepared meats and vegetables. A sample menu might begin with a guanaco empanada, followed by courses of diverse meats, grilled pumpkin, and a vegetable bruschetta. It's a veritable feast that is worthy of the high price tag.
This remote part of western Mendoza Uspallata is home to Mendoza’s most elevated vineyard and winery, Estancia Uspallata at 2,000 meters above sea level (6,561 feet). Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Franc are cultivated in this seemingly inhospitable canyon, the driving force to the bodega’s restaurant, Fuegos en Altura. The lunchtime-only tasting banquet deals in various proteins such as as kid goat and lamb prepared over open fires, a show that adds to the remarkable ambience in the canyon. The wine pairing comes from the estate and El Enemigo.
Serving a buffet of salads and starters followed by a main course straight from the grill, La Juntada updates the classic pulperia (tavern) atmosphere with a good wine list and a fresh lick of paint. Go hungry for the typical Argentine fare such as grilled goat kid that's well-prepared.
