Welcome with coffee (winter) or Medio y Medio (summer) in the park. Hear the family’s story from the winemaker. Tour the Tannat vineyard, production plant with 1930s tank, barrel cellars (largest in Uruguay), sparkling wine cave, and 1820 museum with 1967/1978 bottles. Enjoy a master class on disgorging sparkling wine.
The largest active underground cellar on the continent and the historic 1930s concrete tanks of Bodega Santa Rosa serve as the stage for this 2.5-hour high-impact viticultural and historical expedition.
Provided by a family estate founded in 1898, this journey transitions from a scenic park reception to a deep-water immersion into 126 years of winemaking innovation.
You move from the educational discovery of the "natural sparkling" process to an active immersion featuring a 3-course lunch and seven distinct tastings, experiencing an environment where the winery’s oenologist and owner, Juan Passadore, define the day's energy.
Because this is a highly exclusive "Winemaker-Led" activity with a 4.8-star rating, you should secure your reservation early to ensure a seat for your definitive journey through Uruguayan liquid history.
Expect a "spectacular," well-paced, and deeply "authentic" immersion into the history of the Río de la Plata. The transition from "viewing the vineyards" to "dining in a historic cellar" is managed by a team noted for being "incredibly informative and professional," ensuring that every guest receives a personalized master class. The environment is one of monumental tradition, where the sight of barrels dating back to 1940 and wines from 1967 provides a necessary 2026 refresh. Note that for 2026 safety, this historic site is not suitable for wheelchair users.
