Buenos Aires, Argentina - Wine & Photos

It was a long but wonderful first day. Made it from the airport to my hotel way too early to check in. Good news, they had a spa with a shower room! Got freshened up and took an uber to Miravida Hotel and Wine Bar for a small group wine tasting. There were only three of us. We had a white torrentes which was lovely, a Pinot noir, and three different Malbecs. I’m glad they provided snacks because it was a while since breakfast! There was a jam made out of a pumpkin-like spaghetti-like squash that I will now spend many hours trying to find a recipe for.

I then uber-ed over to the city center to meet my photographer/guide. We walked A LOT. We talked. It was awesome. Buenos Aires is very interesting, the neighborhoods, the architecture, and the hidden gems that a local can provide make it really special. I’m absolutely dead tired now and have some impressive-feeling blisters.Read more
