I wasn't going to have time to go to Mendoza on this trip, but I wanted a unique wine experience. Pain et Vin delivered. I also wanted to try wines that I couldn't buy in the US.
I reserved a wine tasting, and it ended up being just me. The first wine was selected, but the rest would be chosen as we talked, learned more about what I like, what I was smelling and tasting - it was an incredible experience.
The shop smells amazing as the sour dough is made in house and the cheese pairings could not have been more perfect - tasting how they changed the wine and having the opportunity to learn about how to best pair what I was drinking made for an incredible first night.
I also bought a lot of wine - they packed it up (twice, long story) and helped me figure out how easily it would be to get the wine to my next destination rather than shipping back to the US, saving me a few hundred dollars.
I can't thank Pain et Vin enough for the perfect first night in Buenos Aires, and I can't recommend this place enough.
