Wine and Cigars tips in Buenos Aires travel tips and stories. Vacations ideas, cruises spa and resorts

If you are taking a trip to Argentina you will find that there are plenty options of wine and cigars. You should plan on tasting a lot and maybe having the rest mailed back to your home so you don’t have to lug it around in the airport.

Catena House is a great choice for the Argentine red wines. The famous Catenas, Catena Alta, Catena Zapata and Angelica Zapata will delight any discerning palate. Other reds of note include Luigi Bosca and Los Nobles. If whites are more to your taste, the Norton Sauvignon is one of the finest you’ll find.

To complement the wines with a nice cigar, stop by Tabaqueria Inglesa. It’s on Paraguay Street, and Florida street, a few blocks from the Marriott Buenos Aires. They sell fine Cubans. Pick up a few and take your chances mailing them back to the US. It’s worth the risk - worst case you’ll just lose them in the mail!
