Mendoza = wine

I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Mendoza and environs with my friend Joel Feldman. We began our excursion westward with another of those fantastic overnight bus rides (first class -- with seats that fully recline, dinner and breakfast service, offers of whiskey and snacks, and a panoramic view from the second floor front seats), arriving early Sunday in Mendoza. The first real rain in nine months made our plans clear -- a winery (or two). We managed to do the excellent Malbecs and Cabernets of Lujan de Cuyo (a major bodega area south of Mendoza) justice.
