    Admire the city’s beautiful beaches, outdoor art and atmospheric neighborhoods as a prelude to visiting a country estate for a sampling of locally produced cheeses and wines. The beaches are so gorgeous that they inspired Punta del Este’s nickname – the St. Tropez of Latin America. While passing Brava Beach, you will see its iconic concrete sculpture of a giant hand with just the fingertips emerging from the sand. After pausing to snap photos of the bizarrely undulating bridges at La Barra, you will travel inland to Narbona, a restaurant and farm that produces outstanding cheeses and artisanal goods such as yogurt, jam and a sweet creamy caramel known as Dulce de Leche. During the tasting, you can expect to sample several of these items, particularly the cheeses, paired with complementary wines. For instance, the expressive Tannat Roble wine is often served with reggianito, a hard granular cheese reminiscent of parmesan. HIGHLIGHTS: Drive past Punta del Este’s photogenic beaches and through trendy neighborhoods. Stop for photos of the undulating stress-ribbon bridges at La Barra. Head inland to a winery and farm for a tasting of its cheeses, wines and artisan goods.

    Settle in for a spectacularly scenic drive through the countryside for a tasting of olive oil at a eco-friendly plantation with thousands of olive trees. The landscape resembles Tuscany in many ways and the climate is similar, as well. It makes for an ideal setting to produce premium olive oil. While touring the Olivos de las Animas plantation, you will see how the trees are maintained with great respect for the environment. The pruning debris is used for organic fertilizer, vegetation is allowed to grow between the trees to reduce erosion and increase the soil’s permeability, and herbicides are avoided. Once harvested, the olives are processed within 24 hours to maximize their quality. During the sampling, you will taste three different olive oils, each with its own distinct aroma and flavor, and learn about the potential health benefits of olive oil. Homemade breads and cheeses will be served as an accompaniment.


    HIGHLIGHTS

    • Sample several premium olive oils that the Olivos de las Animas plantation produces.
    • Tour the plantation for an understanding of its environmentally friendly methods.
    • Learn about the potential health benefits of olive oil, especially when produced naturally.
    • Enjoy a panoramic drive through the Tuscan-like countryside.
