We were pleasantly surprised It was nice. The owner explained it well and was very friendly. Wines were very tasty. This was true for all cantinas we visited through your website. We learned a lot about the wine making process and grapes. Casa Benna and Cantina Ortenzi had a very beautiful location and the best food to accompany the wine on top of it.

About winetourism: you did a great job, all of you.…
