Mendoza, Argentina was just named one of the top "50 Places of a Lifetime" by National Geographic Magazine's "Traveler" in its October 2009 issue.
Celebrated for its world class wines, the Argentine province of Mendoza also serves up an array of world class attractions.
Indeed, we were initially attracted to the region by South America's tallest mountain, Cerro Aconcagua, we also fell in love with the people, the beauty, the food and the culture of Mendoza, Argentina.
This led us to plant a small production vineyard, make wine, build a small hotel, and to make Mendoza our home.
